Golden Moments Durian Buffet: Free-Flow Black Thorn and Premium Breeds on North Bridge Road
A durian buffet is already a dangerous idea. A durian buffet with free-flow Black Thorn is a financial intervention waiting to happen. Golden Moments is running an Assorted Premium Durian Breeds buffet at its 779 North Bridge Road shop, with free-flow Black Thorn, D1 Ganghai and D13 Golden Bun, plus a spread of durian-based desserts to finish the job.
What the buffet gets you
The Assorted Premium Durian Breeds buffet covers free-flow Black Thorn, D1 Ganghai and D13 Golden Bun, alongside durian-based desserts. That is a genuinely premium lineup: Black Thorn alone usually sells at prices that make Mao Shan Wang look reasonable. If you want the king of the hill instead, the Premium Black Gold Mao Shan Wang set is a separate offering at $76.80 per pax. It is billed as limited time only, so this is not one to file under someday.
The practical details
Golden Moments is at 779 North Bridge Road, #01-01, Singapore 198747, open daily 12pm to 10pm, with reservations via +65 8818 8497. Book ahead. Durian buffets draw serious crowds in season and walk-ins are a gamble. The shop sits in the Kampong Glam stretch of North Bridge Road, walkable from Lavender and Bugis MRT stations, so it slots neatly after a Haji Lane wander.
For the full durian itinerary
Singapore's durian season turns the whole island into a treasure map. If you prefer your durian by the whole fruit rather than buffet-style, we covered Durian Ninja's pop-up at Tampines, running till August, which takes a very different, first-come-first-served approach. Between the two, your durian quota for 2026 is well handled.
