Richmond night market - Home depot / Ikea one

Here is my review and the few places I tried

TW fried chicken stall on the main row left side
- The chicken and everything else there is pre-fried and then re-fried / re-heat and given to you
- Ordered a bag of TW fried chicken with basil for $5 gotta give it 4/5
- Only shady part was that the guy picked some chicken from the main pile (in the box) and then pick some other chicken from hidden view below where the main pile was. Really shady if you ask me.
- 4/5 for food but 0/5 for shadiness

Shaved Mango Ice (main row left side)
- Ran by family who seems to care about what they sell
- Ordered the a cup of Sago with mango and coconut milk. Normally this can't be botched but the Mango was very sour and had a very old off taste + they peeled it too much to the core so you can taste the mango seed core.
- 1/5 for today. But would try again in the future

Takoyaki place (left side end of main row)
- Got the 6 pieces of octopus takoyaki. They are quite generous with the benito shavings which is good
- 4/5

Fried Squid Place (end of far left row)
- $2 special for a plate of soya sauce noodles 5/5
- They had fried squid I wanted to try but it was pretty pricy at $7.25 - portion is huge compared to the regular bbq squid!

Still don't understand why people line up for the hurricane potato stands - there were at least 3-4 stalls and they had pretty consistent lineups.
