Epic Asian Street Food Night Festival hosted by Smorgasburg in Wynwood

July 27, 2023 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

If you’ve traveled to Asia, you’re probably familiar with night markets filled with stalls cooking up mouthwatering street foods. Growing up in Hong Kong, there were night markets everywhere. Night markets are a much more relaxed atmosphere instead of daytime markets. 

So, in that vein, I’m thrilled Smorgasburg Miami will be hosting the first ever Asian Street Food Festival at NIGHT.  It’s “the mother of all street fairs” as South Florida on the Cheap rightly claims, love that!

Smorgasburg will be decked out with beautiful lanterns lit up and the stylist is working her magic to come up with “neon looking” signs and characters. I can’t wait to see this. 

You’re in for a TREAT foodwise…

Delicious bites from over 12 Asian vendors. I’ve put their instagram handles so you can go check them out. Smorgasburg’s 60+ regular vendors will be serving their regular menu. Don’t forget to visit @smorgasburgmiami for all the updates, they are super at posting food that’ll make you drool. 

The BEST CHINESE BBQ @landnseamia

Delicious bites like Peking Duck Rolls with Scallions, Cucumber & Hoisin Sauce; Chicken sesame noodles and Char Siu (Roast Pork) with Fried Rice. 

New dim sum concept @dimsumterminal

Slow Braised Pork Belly or Chicken Scallion Pancake Sandwich, great street food! Also Taiwanese Dessert: mango, matcha, strawberry wrapped pastry cream. 

Fab Vietnamese Street Food @ykstreetfood

Street Skewers : Shrimp, Crab, Quail Egg, Tofu, Beef Meatballs; Steam Pork & Ube buns; Special Banh mi; Savory Sausage Sticky rice; Crispy Fish Sauce Chicken Wings.

In the Cultural department…

Thanks to Michiyo Ishii Sloane, a member of Ichimura Miami Japan Garden who organized two workshops for us, we are so honored.  An Origami (Japanese art of paper folding) workshop with Miyuki Saito. She’ll start with a simple boat and move onto the popular crane. 

And also an Ikebana (Japanese art of flower arrangement) workshop led by landscape designer & Ikebana artist, Akiko Iwata from Ai Creative Studio.

For Entertainment…

A young Filipino Breakdancer, Justin Medina will be showing off his creative moves, he can twist like a pretzel. 

Yoshiko Taiko Dojo drummers promised to keep moving their act and have fun with the audience. 

Ending the night with fun times!  Who doesn’t love Karoake? 

Here’s Event Schedule so you can plan ahead. 

Alright, that sums up what to expect. My tip is to come with family, friends so you can share many dishes, that’s how we always dine in Asia. Bring your own chopsticks if you have them and wear something Asian looking, will ya and get into the spirit for this festival.

EPIC Asian Street Food Night Festival!
