The two dishes I opted on getting for myself included a Malaysian dish as well as a Japanese dish. Unfortunately I didn't consider whether the Malaysian dish would be spicy - unfortunately I'm not very good at eating spicy food, even the slightest taste of spice makes me squirm... I couldn't finish it so luckily I had my friend to finish it for me so the food wouldn't go to waste - that would have made me so distraught if I knew I was wasting food...

 

 

The Japanese dish, I bought was advertised near the corner of the event. The small boxes were arranged at the front of the event, and to be honest, Japanese food has to one of my favourite types of food available so of course I had to have a try! The dish I opted upon was the "oyako-don" which is described as "delicately simmered marinated chicken and onion omelette, garnished seaweed crisps and chive. For some reason, I was really full, but because the packaging was really convenient I was able to bring it with me home to eat. The Bubble Tea Magazine also provided us with bags at a separate stall which made it easier to carry food and other belongings around - especially if you didn't bring a bag yourself.

 

 

 

Another thing which brought me to the night market was the fact they offered a unique dish which I've heard much about but didn't think they would have it available in the UK. Some of you may recognise this dish, known as the ramen burger. It looked interesting however at £7 per burger, quite a few of us were wondering if it was really worth the price...

 

 

Moving onto desserts, I remember trying out Hong Kong waffles in Chinatown, and I was really pleased to know they offered them at the event. However, at this event they offered more varieties whilst in Chinatown they were limited to normal flavoured Hong Kong waffles or nutella flavoured ones. I wish I had more room in my stomach to eat, they looked delicious, and despite not having a sweet tooth, they did look incredibly appealing - plus from past experiences I've always enjoyed the taste, and the texture is pretty original compared to the usual waffle styles.

 

 

The event had so much variety I wasn't even able to take the chance to try everything, if I had the money, the time and the stomach I would have honestly tried everything. From Korean chicken skewers to Japanese snacks to confectionaries, I'm really thankful for this opportunity.

 

Thank you for reading my blog post! Tune in to my next birthday updates - yes I'm still a post behind, and I have an upcoming birthday this Sunday... I'll aim to stay on top of the game, hope you enjoyed reading it and looking at the pictures - I know a lot of people who were regretting missing this event or not knowing about this opportunity because honestly the variety was unbelievable!
