[subordinate]

Meh...

Not even worth going to anymore.

[Zoomy]

$2.75 to get into the River Rock one, :rukidding: forget about it.
Good news is the one near the Home Depot is free.

[HonestTea]

Meh...

+1

[keifun]

WOW. the price for the night market by the casino keeps going up every year.

$2->$2.50->$2.75 now. This might start to deter people away and lure them into the Home Depot one instead.

[melloman]

Wonder if Home Depot going back to $5 parking, considering last year parking was free and admission was $2.

:considered:

[Hondaracer]

Anyone ever go to the north van one?

The Richmond ones ain't worth the gas to get there, fucking cell phone booth after cell phone booth

[willystyle]

Yeah I'm curious about the North Van one as well.

[68style]

Hold up... People go to night market for reasons besides food and girls?!

the takoyaki's at the night markets :concentrate:

[TOS'd]

I've been the the North Van one last year or the year before. It was much smaller and the booths sell more artsy homemade craft stuff. As for the food, there was like 10 food trucks parked in rows.

It was fun for the food trucks because I was able to try a whole bunch of them in the same area, similar to those food truck festivals they sometimes have in Vancouver.

[hi-revs]

I'd want to check out the Surrey one this year. Didnt go last year

[Mining]

Which one is that if I may ask?

Has anyone been to the Surrey one before? How was it?

[Bonka]

Unless you want to pick up some shirts that says Surrey on it, pass.

the takoyaki's at the night markets :concentrate:
Yeaaahhhh no if you think nightmarket takoyaki is good clearly you've never tried legit takoyaki :lawl: 9/10 the takoyaki batter is fucking raw, absolutely disgusting. That's the ONLY thing I make sure to NEVER have at the nightmarket.

The North Van one is a change in scenery for sure, but if you're Asian, Don't have children with you, and/or cheap, you're better off going to the Richmond ones.

As someone mentioned, NVan one is smaller, sell expensive artisan things, etc. Also be prepared to pay a lot more for food. Higher quality, definitely, but at a premium.

[Hondaracer]

All those yuppies that sell their shit at the north van one are all the same that sell at the dundarave market and the lonsdale quey etc. I don't get people who overvalue their shit to a point where no one is buying anything.

Like some little paintings I'd love to have for $150-$300 but when you're selling a 24X48 print for $900? Fuck off

The North Van market also has a beer garden and live music, if you're into those sorts of things. Also, people on the North Shore tend to have manners, so it's a nice change from the chaos that is the Richmond night market.

[MG1]

^you mean they actually close their mouths when they chew and not display their food for others to see?

hork or shoot snot out of nose onto ground?

[CRS]

Please post your experience if you end up going to the home depot one tonight!

[fliptuner]

I just want some ice cream crepes

[Razor Ramon HG]

Are there enough stalls to warrant going tomorrow night?

[Cwift]

just came back from the one behind home depot, and it seems like its smaller by 50%. Lots of the areas are vacant without tents setup, so i don't know if there's going to be more stalls set up in the future.

[hi-revs]

Went to the Home Depot one tonight. 40% of stalls open. Same crap as other years. Probably wont go back there this year.
River Rock one is generally better anyways.

[dlo]

ill go to the home depot one if i dont wanna line up for food haha, some venodrs are open but nothing eye catching... theres also a krispy kremes stall now yumm

[omnomnomnivore]

Walk with stinky tofu to get through the crowd.

[rageguy]

The Home Depot one is having issues filling up the tents. The owner is giving discounts to anyone who wants to set one up.

[moody]

I went to the Home Depot one. There was nothing. Walked 10min and walked right back out. Food area was busy. Biggest lineup as usually are the over priced $3 roasted corn and hurricane potatoes for $4.50 for one or $8 for 2. Ridiculous how much ppl are willing to pay for half a potatoe. Haha.. But good for vendor.

[flagella]

No kidding. Hurricane potatoes probably rake in the fattest margin.

[Vansterdam]

hurricane potato dude is prob living in a mansion driving a Lambo from all the sales LOL. whoever thought of that idea first is a genius

:rukidding::rukidding::rukidding: Somebody predict the price for next year.

:suspicious: Not even sure you went there now..

Maybe moody went later but I was there from 7-9:30 sooo... yup.

-Takoyaki & Deep Fried Squid had the longest lineups, with time in line being about 20 minutes, and waits for food even longer.

-Halal BBQ was the main skewer place, there was another small Japanese BBQ stall, but other then that, no skewers. Wait was about 45 minutes for 3 chicken skewers @ Halal.

-Candy Sugar (IIRC) had 2/3/4 layer cotton candy made into the shape of a flower. Definitely cool, but again, 30 minute wait.

Hurricane Potato had a 5 minute wait if that, same with Roasted Corn..

Once RiverRock is open, me and gf would probably go back for the food we like, as I'm sure the lines will all die down like last year. Definitely hurting for novelty stands though, you can tell this nightmarkets going to be gone if RiverRock continues to stay open.

[Presto]

Are "hurricane potatoes" the Chinese knock-off name for them? It seems like a major lost opportunity by not calling it a Potatornado, or something cool.

[tiger_handheld]

No LG's at Homdepot one on Saturday :(

FISHBALLS!! 5 fishballs for $3.00 :(

Also checked out the Amazebuns stall. Pretty good. Had the ice cream + condensed milk. There was a sign that said "featured on Vancity buzz". has anyone else tried / heard of them? seems new this year.

[Drow]

Which 1 had the stinky tofu?

[jinxcrusader]

The North Van one is mainly food trucks and a craft market. Not bad. Will go again this year.

[melloman]

Which 1 had the stinky tofu?

Home Depot location has stinky tofu.

Had a girl waiting in line behind us with it... :heckno:

[GLOW]

perfect time to fart and have it go unnoticed

[Hondaracer]

the hurricane potatoes are just "wiggle chips" which have been at the PNE for as long as i can remember lol

[a00755836]

Well ya, the only time i get to try some takoyaki are at the night markets.. Other than that, nope :okay:
izumiya japanese market has some refrigerated ones.

toyotomi has some decent ones.

i hate takoyaki's in general. they are just too doughy for me.

night market are just plain raw, if you want cooked takoyaki's in the night market, just stay away from huge lineups cause thats how you get all six raw ones. lol.

[Cwift]

lol that parking lot traffic...

[yray]

No.3rd last night :fulloffuck:

[jakesbestbuys]

i went last year. only thing to do was food and chinese girls ..:)

[thegentleman]

Can anyone confirm if the deep fried squid stand is open at the home depot location? It was runned by a young group of 2 guys and a girl sometimes in their late 20's maybe early 30's?

I went almost every other week to them last year. One of my favourite calamari places

[SpeedStars]

http://i58.tinypic.com/r9hqtu.jpg can anyone say rekt? 20 + helped other people get 4 for $5

[CRS]

I don't understand what I'm looking at?

There appears to be some fish and fish poop in a bucket?

[SpeedStars]

Theres a paper net game where you fish for goldfish in the HD nm :alone:

[Boostaholic]

Looking to get a money clip or cheapy thin wallet, summer is here and wallet is too thick to carry around. Which nightmarket is best for that?

[Euro7r]

The parking near the Casino nightmarket is crazy. All cars dusted with dirt that drive in there to park LOL.

[Durrann]

Home Depot location has stinky tofu.

Had a girl waiting in line behind us with it... :heckno:

tried it this past weekend..wasn't even that stinky

[MG1]

Went to both night markets on Saturday night......... washed my car earlier that day, too. LOL.

Fast pass, or whatever you call it at the night market next to River Rock, costs a tad more but gets you in right away. Without it, you have to walk all the way to the other side just to come back to the entrance. Food costs more at this night market but there's more places.

I enjoyed the nightmarket near Home Depot more. It's sparse right now, but hoping it will get better over time. Entry is free and free parking on street is not bad. Best bet is to pay 4 bucks for parking next to the venue - with four people in car, it's like one buck each.

I told my kids I'll give them and their friends a ride to the one next to casino, but not go into the parking lot. I'll drop them off at casino, while I check out the sluts...... I mean slots. Hee hee, hue hue, pew pew.......

[TypeRNammer]

Just a heads up Surrey Night market is NOT dog friendly. Went there and got denied entry. Their reason is due to food safe issues.

[jing]

None of the night markets are dog friendly, unless you don't mind the risk of your dog being trampled on by clueless idiots

[TypeRNammer]

International summer night market's radio ad indicates that they're dog friendly.

I had no issues bringing dogs to both of the Richmond night markets.

Youre an idiot for bringing a dog to the night market. Like WTF. There are off-leash parks and trails to bring your dog to.
Dogs are probably afraid as f*ck for their lives while making their way through the nigh market.

[Akinari]

Just got braces, went to nightmarket with gf and could not eat shit so sad :okay: could only drink sugar cane juice and eat shitty takoyaki

[multicartual]

Which is the TASTIEST food at Night market right now???

[moody]

How is the Surrey night market? I have never been there before.

[lilaznviper]

went to the nightmarket near the casino. food wasn't that good. security started kicking people out at around 11:45. it was a shit fest trying to get out of the parking lot.

[Mr.HappySilp]

Haven't been to the night market for years and this year is the same. Is the same food over and over. Selling the same stuff again and again.

Rather go to the food kart festival. Food seems to taste better there.

[Manic!]

http://i58.tinypic.com/r9hqtu.jpg can anyone say rekt? 20 + helped other people get 4 for $5

Is that to eat or have as a pet? Serious question.

Dogs are probably afraid as f*ck for their lives while making their way through the nigh market.

Especially the small dogs that could get stepped or trampled on. And why the fuck would you wanna bring your dog to nightmarket with all the trash, food, spit, spilled drinks all over the ground.

[melloman]

Went to RR nightmarket last night.

Sat in traffic for about 40 minutes (forgot to take River :facepalm: ) but once parked, got the zoom pass for $20, definitely worth it considering you skip the line.

Once inside, shops are no different, games area seems smaller, saw the "Throne of Rotato" :lawl: and had some decent food.

Comparing HD to RR, I'd stick to RR just because there's more food. Here's to hoping HD will get afew more stalls for food. They def. need a BBQ skewer stall, cuz Halals wait was 40min+.

[Obsideon]

http://i58.tinypic.com/r9hqtu.jpg can anyone say rekt? 20 + helped other people get 4 for $5

You know they sell those feeder fish at pet stores for like 20 cents each right? :whistle:

Which is the TASTIEST food at Night market right now???

If you don't mind waiting like 50 minutes there is a new Taiwanese fried chicken place that's pretty good. There is also a spicy Crawfish stand but it's a mess to eat and not worth it to peel 2 minutes for a the tiny sliver of meat.
Everything else is the same. The big dim sum stand is always there for you to grab a bite while you wait for lamb skewers although they are meh.
I do like the super spicy fish balls though.
:concentrate:

[fliptuner]

Are the stand all occupied yet? Don't want to go if they're at under 90%.

Thanks

[Groot]

^River Rock one is the one you'd want to go then

[spades]

anyone see the guy proposing get denied tonight? so awkward

[Cillu]

The stalls at the River Rock night market seems to be more interesting this year.

[tiger_handheld]

anyone see the guy proposing get denied tonight? so awkward

video or did not happen!

[Durrann]

anyone see the guy proposing get denied tonight? so awkward

around what time? i was there last night

[Galactic_Phantom]

anyone see the guy proposing get denied tonight? so awkward

of all places he decided to propose he chose the night fucking market he deserves the rejection :rukidding: who in the right mind who want to say "I will" in a clusterfuck of people, litter and secondhand smoke

[spades]

^ lmao, tried to get a video but people kept walking in front of my phone, happened around 9:50 - 10

[Razor Ramon HG]

My friend opened up the Malaysian roti stall called Mamak La at the RR location if you guys wanna help him out! My favourite is the mac n cheese roti.

[MG1]

I do't get how some guys think it's romantic to ask someone to marry them in public. It should be done privately.

"How did your husband propose to you, Janet?" "At the Richmond Night Market............ in front of everybody." "Oh.....................that's really special."

[Mikoyan]

I still remember the awkward proposals at GM Place back in the day. Even worse is when you can lip read on the jumbotron her saying, "You're asking me to marry you at a HOCKEY GAME?!?" She said no in front of a sell out crowd.

[jlo mein]

Any parking tips for the market near casino? Someone said here the weekend parking line up can be 45 minutes long? Roads to avoid?
