Traditions, trends and heartwarming stories from bazaars


THE scent of sizzling murtabak, the excitement of what myriad food stalls have to offer and the sweet promise of tepung pelita melting in your mouth.

Exploring the delicious chaos, they ask the questions “Are the prices worth it?” and “What’s behind viral food trends?” before reflecting on the bigger meaning of Ramadan bazaars and their role in promoting racial unity.
