We'll give the small bananas a try - I really liked the smaller varieties in Hawaii.Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13599208082890099005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757350942807174715.post-80434744934327187912011-12-16T07:09:10.963-08:002011-12-16T07:09:10.963-08:00Hi Mike - If you do get lychee or longan from 99 Ranch Market, make sure they weren't shipped previously frozen. Our neighbor had both a lychee and longan tree in their driveway. While you're at 99 Ranch try some of the small bananas, they are more starchy, but not as sweet.Kirkhttp://www.mmm-yoso.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757350942807174715.post-76131402608743286462011-12-15T08:28:01.126-08:002011-12-15T08:28:01.126-08:00Hi CAB - I'll definitely keep my eye out for longans the next time I go to Ranch 99 - thanks for the heads up!Mikehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13599208082890099005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757350942807174715.post-25975291972011459602011-12-14T17:00:39.178-08:002011-12-14T17:00:39.178-08:00What a score! I love fresh logans, sometimes more than lychees. Dried logans look a lot like raisins since the meat turns dark brown. You can find logans at 99 Ranch usually. Probably not as good as the ones in Kauai.CABhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05660061008362643491noreply@blogger.com
