The Squirrel Hill Night Market is coming back for a second season, with late-night shopping, crafts – and lots of food.
The first Night Market of the year is happening on Saturday, June 18 from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. in the heart of Squirrel Hill, at Forbes Avenue and Murray Avenue. More than 75 vendors, mostly from the ‘I Made It Market’ crowd, will be selling jewelry, prints, ceramics, quilts, candles, and other handmade wares.
And then there’s the food.
Not only will Squirrel Hill restaurants be offering specials and take-out dishes, but there will also be plenty of food trucks and vendors on hand for late-night noshing, including PGH Crepes, PGH Pierogi Truck, Berlin Street Food, Mac & Gold Truck, La Palapa Mexican Gourmet Kitchen, Stickler’s Ice Pops, Happy Camper Cakes and A519 Chocolate.
Mobile bakery Yummyholic will also be serving up their pop culture-inspired gourmet treats, including Bey Lemonade Cookies, Oreo-stuffed Chocolate Chip Monsters, Fruity Pebbles Milk Cupcakes, Ice Cream Narwhal Vanilla Sugar Cookies, and Vietnamese Coffee + Donut Cupcakes.
But what we’re really excited about is their K.F.C. + Waffles Cupcake.
The brainchild of Yummyholic’s Jasmine Cho, the K.F.C. (Korean Fried Chicken) treat is a delicious mashup of a Korean specialty and a classic Southern breakfast, made with a spiced waffle cupcake with soju glaze and topped with a piece of Korean fried chicken.
The next two Squirrel Hill Night Markets will be on Saturday, August 20 and Saturday, September 17.
