Melbourne Winter Markets

Returning for it’s fourth year, the Winter Night Market kicked off on Wednesday. Despite the extra chill in the air that night, the market still packed a crowd. Under the sheds there were a wide range of stalls from street food  to craft and design, and of course mulled wine. It could of been the fact that the weather seemed extra cold that night, but the line up for food was never too long (unlike the summer markets) and there was always a seat available. Our favourite stalls of the night would have to be Smoke City Burners (for all the meat eaters),  Little Mushroom Co (for the vegos) and of course the mulled wine stall. (We were too full to try the deep fried oreos from Taki’s Balls!). The Winter Night Market runs every Wednesday until August 26. Read more here.
