Pakuranga Night Market

Ok so my favourite is Yakatori, they have the best seafood there! Crumbed prawns, shrimp, pork skewers <drooooool> Seriously good yet cheap food. A fav at the nightmarket.

You would never think an underground suburban car park would become a lively market every Saturday night, reminiscent of hustle and bustle of some far away exotic location, perhaps Shanghai or Buenos Aires. Follow your nose and the trail of people; they are all there for the same reason as you, the food. You might need to plan more than one trip because there is just so much to choose from, traditional kai from Korea, China, Hungary, Spain, Argentina and Samoa just to name a few. I make a deal with myself to try something new each time (which isn’t exactly hard) My favourites so far include the empanadas and the Hungarian twists, mmmm cinnamon covered sweetness, so good.

It is  great market, with tons of bargains

Yeeeeap :) I love all the different stalls and different type of food and gifts ect. that you can buy :) 

Great variety of delicious food ranging from many different cultures. Will definitely go back :)

Living locally I pop down on Saturday night for tea. The food selection is amazing - every cusine you could think of and the prices are reasonable. It does get super busy and its hard to sit down and eat so we normally do takeaway. Make sure you bring cash as there is often a long queue for the EFTPOS machine.

If you're unsure about your car, if the reg or the wof are expired, this is the right place to go. You don't need to stay long or wait for the night market actually. Just park for 10 mn and you will see the traffic wardens circle around you like the vultures around a dead donkey in the Sonoran desert.
