Night Market


The Great Lechon
I just love the summer Night Market of Queen Victoria Market in Melbourne. It is on every Wednesday Nights 5:00-10:00 pm. Running from November '14 - March '15
 
If you do not like big crowds, come early. For me, the MAIN event is the HOY PINOY food booth because I am PINOY! The smokey pop up shop has the best Pinoy barbeque Melbourne has to offer! And not to mention the great LECHON, spit roast pig! Every celebration in my native land boasts this roasted suckling pig on the table.
 
The aroma of the bbq smoke, the stalls of different delicacies and cuisines, make every visit to the night market a wonderful food experience. Even a food safari. The fiesta atmosphere is great. It feels like home.

This little stall here deserves big attention! Sweet!


Of course I always go back and take more photos of Hoy Pinoy stall.


I feel patriotic.


Litson Manok too!



The bamboo spears are huge like they can actually skewer a baby haha!


On my way home...
