After two days of spending most of our time at the resort or on a resort organized tour, my friend was itching to go into the town and get a taste of the local markets and the street food! Sayan Night Market, located in the village of Sayan just a 20 minute drive away, was the perfect solution.
The market draws both locals and visitors. We saw colorful arrays of stalls selling traditional Balinese painting, clothing , handmade crafts, and more.
We caught the market right before sunset, where it had cooled down a bit but we could still see all the beautiful colors.
Street Food at Sayan Night Market
As night fell, we headed to the food part of the night market to taste some local street food!
The market was filled with all sorts of people (we definitely saw locals, but also LOTS of foreigners). On the one hand, it made me feel more comfortable that foreigners could eat here (and not get sick). It must be pretty clean, right?
I ate all sorts of stuff, including salads, noodle soups, and a cold fruit juice smoothie that was blended on the spot. I did not have any digestive issues. Everything was clean, and delicious!
It was really fun to visit Sayan Night Market and get a sense of what the locals eat. The prices are ridiculously cheap, and you can certainly get very full for probably less than USD5 (definitely less than $10!) while sampling a lot of really interesting flavors!
