queen victoria market

Queen Victoria market was opened on 20 March 1878. It's an open air market spreading over 7 hectares which operates only in the morning.

MARKET??!!!*thoughts running towards smelly and wet markets*

Unlike our 'clean' markets back in malaysia...QVM is actually VERY CLEAN. However, for this month, Suzuki is organising a night market at QVM which is QUITE similar to pasar malam *maybe only the idea that it operates at night*.

Let me take you on a tour...

Banjo BBQ, yummy!




Let's take a closer look...australia's beloved animals TURNED INTO BBQ. *still interested?* According to Jinn..roo taste good...errrr....


I think Jinn contributed alot that night (buying food, more food) that Suzuki named a car after him, Jimny:) *the night market is actually organised by Suzuki, thus the name Suzuki night market*


Food...



More food..



The queue for this was extremely long!!!Alas, it just tasted like fried bread with choc. *but 'ma kiok' is soooooo much better*


Japanese food


Tantalizing chicken satay...yummy


After our honey dumplings appetizer


Our main course, saffron rice


Outdoor entertainment; belly dancers, tap dancers, bands..(unlike our pasar malam; ah beng techno music)




The crowd...this is just a small portion of the actual crowd..more ppl sardined inside the market


Dessert!!!! Lygon St:)


Let me introduce my new found love, gelatee:)

Hence, the day ended well with myself and soo ching being so bloated up food. *I know what you're thinking...she ate ALL that food by herself!!! FYI, I shared everything with Soo Ching except the ice-cream- you can't share the love of your life..now can you? :)
