This was the event's second year.Thousands of people headed to the Sunset Night Market on Friday - hungry for food and a great time.San Francisco Supervisor Joel Engardio said last year, they had a crowd of 10,000 people show up - which led to some changes.
"We didn't know what to expect, so it was a good problem to have. And we ran out of food and too many people showed up. So this year, we decided to double the length. It's actually more than double the size," Engardio said.For the first time ever, San Francisco's Sunset neighborhood hosted an Asian-inspired night market Friday night."This is the best of the Sunset, right here on Irving Street," Engardio said.
Carmen Ho's family runs the Tasty Pastry. They weren't expecting the influx of people last year so they set up a table outside. "We weren't ready for the amount of people so we were like oh my gosh this is actually insane so leading up to this we were just like lets get in on this have fun our whole family is here joining us even my grandma is here today," Ho said."I think like the whole Chinese culture of eating together, eating at night at a night market is something very engrained in our culture," Ho said.
We did see lots of families and furry friends enjoying the delicious smells wafting through the Sunset Night Market."It's great to see more things happening in the community so overall it's just really nice to see more things like this happening," Gularti said.
