Hungry Vlogger Raids Semarang's Best Night Market 🇮🇩

The "Chinatown" in any city is a sure bet for finding some delicious food, and the one in Semarang is no exception.

A large section of Semarang's Chinatown is closed off to vehicle traffic every Friday - Sunday evening, and turned into a night market called Pasar Semawis.

This night market was different to what I was expecting. Every other night market I've visited in Asia has been loud, crowded and chaotic. The Semawis market was much more relaxed, with not so many visitors and lots of space in between each stall. The street is very wide and it's comfortable to walk around in peace.

I feel like even if someone was in a wheelchair they could comfortably explore this place, and I can't say that about any other night market I've visited in Asia.

I was in the mood for some satay (grilled meat on sticks) and that was easy to find in this market. Many stalls were selling it. I was attracted to a stall selling sate babi (pork satay) at 6,000 rupiah ($0.40 USD) per stick.

Just as in every Chinatown in Indonesia, pork is easily available here.

There were a few stalls selling Indonesia food but it was mostly different kinds of Asian foods, particularly Japanese.

I enjoyed some Japanese style meat sticks and Japanese soufflé pancakes, as well as a Thai style mango drink/dessert.
