Took some much needed time off from social media.

Took some much needed time off from social media. Dreaming about whole pig roasts in Taiwan and how cool it would be to have it at The Night Market.

I miss traveling and the beauty and people of Taiwan. ❤️

Night Market round 2 promo coming soon. See you on Aug 21. 👌

謝謝大家來夜市玩！Thank you to all who showed up to our first ever Night Market in Rochester & supporting the vendors. I am humbled and grateful for all of you who came and were patiently waiting for food. ⚡YOU⚡ made this event happen!

This was not only the first night market but also a first for many vendors. We did not know what to expect and I told them maybe 500-1000 people would show up 😅 my bad...

We've now learned our lessons and will do better/bring more food for the next event!

What was your favorite thing about The Night Market yesterday?

See you next month! August 21| September 18 // 5pm-9pm

Thank you, amazing sponsors for supporting this community and believing in this event.

The Night Market is happening THIS Saturday! 🤩😱🙈 I have all the emotions but hasn't got the time to process them. There is one feeling that stands out- excitement! Im so excited to tell you about the performance line up for this Saturday in @rochartcenter !

K.S.K.M.M. is a traditional Khmer non-profit dance group I first learned about back when we did Market for all at @rochfarmmkt. They've been on my mind ever since. The dances are full of stories, legends, and traditions; the costumes are beautiful. It's rare to experience dances like this in America. It's even harder to preserve cultures and traditions and I am so happy to see that there are people in the Cambodian/Khmer community who care enough to pass their knowledge on and also willing to share with the world.

Sothea Lam// the first performer that popped into my head when I decided to have performance at the event. Happy music, chill vibe, vibes that take me back to times traveling through SE Asia. Music & voices like Sothea's is surprisingly uncommon in Rochester. I'd always imagined that one day I would be able to enjoy snacks from Asia while enjoying Sothea's performance because then I can pretend I'm back in Asia traveling, so this is a dream come true!

Learn more about The Night Market- events, performance, vendors at NightMarketMN.com (or link in bio)

I'll see you on Saturday!

If there is one thing you'll see at every night ma

If there is one thing you'll see at every night market in Taiwan- it's Taiwanese sausages. I'm so excited that "Taiwanese Sausages" reached out and signed up to be a vendor at The Night Market! They're located in St. paul, but are making a special appearance in Rochester with charcoal-grilled house-made sausages!

Im secretly hoping that they will bring rice sausages too to make "big sausage little sausage" 大腸包小腸，sort of like a sausage sandwich, but the "bread" is a rice sausage.

Either way I cannot wait. ❤️

🔥 The Night Market- 7/17, 8/21, 9/18 5pm-9pm at Mayo Civic Riverfront Plaza & @rochartcenter

Someone thanked me for "bringing culture to the city" the other day, but the truth is, I'm not bringing culture to Rochester. The culture is already here, I'm just trying to highlight it.

It's been a crazy month trying to get everything in order for the first Night Market (July 17, 5pm-9pm at Mayo Civic Center Riverfront Plaza). I haven't had the time to truly thank the community for being so supportive of this crazy adventure. I am truly humbled and grateful for each and everyone of you who's purchased merch, offered to help, or said kind words.

I'd also like to thank the amazing sponsors for supporting this community and believing in this event.

@knot.woodpecker says I'm crazy to organize a night market in Rochester, and I agree with him 100%. I've been questioning myself why im doing this, stressing myself out. 😂 I'm doing this because I want to have fun, and share a little piece of Asia with you.

The event hasn't happened yet, but to me it's already worth all the effort because of the connections I've made. I got to work with talented people in Rochester, and many other community leaders. A huge thank you to those who are so welcoming and are doing whatever they can to help me along the way, I cannot do this without you.

I met our merch model @milamirandaofficial on a food photoshoot with @wearewhitespace. When I asked if she would be my model and go on a photoshoot with me, she immediately said yes. 😭 Mila is also a super talented videographer, singer, and performer! ❤️❤️❤️

She made all the merch look amazing, and im excited to share these photos with you.

Shop for merch online, im hoping to raise enough fund to create a grant for lower-income BIPOC vendors so they can afford tables, tents, and some signage to sell at the night market.

I worked till 9pm and hadn't had lunch nor dinner

I worked till 9pm and hadn't had lunch nor dinner today. I was too tired to cook and struggled to think of a place I want to eat at as I generally don't eat fast food.

I did this a lot in Taiwan too, but I would always have a night market to go to if I wanted late night foods & drinks.

Night markets are so much more than just foods & drinks. It provides a place of entertainment- games, clothes, accessories, crafts, souvenirs, and daily necessaties.

It's a place where strangers gather to eat and drink at a table, shop, get a massage, or have your fortunes read by birds(or turtles).

There are often more than one night market in a city, each of them known for different things (usually a signature food a vendor sells). Night markets are an everyday occurrence in Taiwan, not a "special" event.

It's impossible to bring the full experience of a night market to Rochester since the regulation and vendors are so different, but I still want to try.

Happy Zongzi festival! Aka Dragon Festival. ❤️

Happy Zongzi festival! Aka Dragon Festival. ❤️

Today is one of the biggest holidays in Taiwan. 端午節！We had a little zongzi making celebration on Saturday with friends and it was so much fun to make food with friends.

I also learned that there's going to be some dragon boat rowing at Silver Lake this Wednesday at 530! 😍 How cool is that?
