Food Adventure at Richmond Night Market

Happy Sunday! My husband and I purchased a Zoom Pass to Richmond Night Market and used two of the five available entries on opening night last April 28.

We're back today and have reviewed the food booths and menu in my other post. We also enjoyed food from the top 10 list.


F4. Thai Street Grill

I have tried grilled meat from three stalls and found F4 Thai Street Grill to be my favourite. Both the giant chicken stick and sirloin beef stick were perfectly grilled and juicy. It's slightly sweet as well. It's perfect with a cup of white rice (or that could be the Filipino in me talking).

F24. Ebi Ball

After enjoying our skewers, we started reviewing each food booth for any changes in their menu and price. Then, we had Ebi Balls. Ebi balls are a popular Japanese snack made with shrimp. It has a crisp exterior with succulent shrimp in the middle.

F91. Big Beard BBQ Deep-Fried Squid

Then, we looked at the top 10 list and ordered based on that. We started with Deep Fried Squid from F91. The outer batter is crispy and golden, providing a satisfying crunch that gives way to the tender and succulent squid within. The squid's interior maintains a delicate and slightly chewy texture, creating a delightful contrast with the crispy exterior.

F86. Fresh Squeeze Lemonade

We were thirsty afterwards and got the original lemonade in a 64 oz bucket (8 cups) from F86. It came with an LED cube and rubber ducky. 🤣 It's worth it! We drank it all evening and didn't finish until 10:30 PM.

F31. Aloha Boys

Afterwards, we succumbed to peer pressure and the top 10 list and ordered the Original Flying Cup Noodles. It's definitely Instagram-worthy but not my thing. It is instant noodles displayed spectacularly.

We also ordered Spam Masubi. It's spam and rice, which I enjoy, but I need more spam. The ratio was off. We're pleased to report that we removed the plastic wrap around it. We almost didn't. 😅

F48. The Rolling Crepe

After eating carbs, we went for dessert at F48 Crepe Crème Brûlèe. I love that it's not overly sweet and has many different textures: soft crepe, crunchy cornflakes, creamy custard, and a crusty top to complete everything.

By the time we finished, I needed to sit, so we went near the stage to enjoy live performances.


F93. Big Beard Meat Skewers

Afterwards, we went to F93 for four skewers: AAA Steak Beef, Premium Cumin Lamb, Honey Garlic Chicken, & Classic BBQ Prawn. Get the lamb. It's the best and only one worth getting.

F30. Cheesy Corn

For our last food item, we went to F30 for some cheesy corn. How can you go wrong with sweet corn topped with salty and savoury melted cheese? It is also part of the top 10 list.

We walked to the Sky Train Station, where I'm writing this inside the moving train heading north.

Thank God for the many blessings and for my hubby, who willingly walked with me while updating my blog. I'm truly blessed and grateful.
