A beloved Southeast Asian institution — the night market, from the Malay words 'pasar' (market) and 'malam' (night). In Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia, pasar malams are lively evening street markets selling everything from satay and rojak to cheap clothing and toys. They have a festive, communal atmosphere that's deeply woven into the culture. Whether you're grabbing dinner or hunting for bargains, the pasar malam is a social ritual as much as a shopping trip.
We took the kids to the pasar malam and they blew all their pocket money on mango ice and fried oreos.
