The Last Night Market of the Season! The KTown Night Market   organizers presents the Halloween Food Fest October 25 & 26, 2014 My post of the first KTown Night Market in April 2014 HERE 6th Street was closed to traffic in KTown.  Over 70 vendors lined the street between Mariposa Ave and Berendo St.  The Ultra-Popular Original Ramen Burger was in attendance.
