    Kuching's kolo mee is often called mee kolok, and Mee Kolok Mangkuk Merah makes a useful late-evening stop for visitors who want the local noodle without turning dinner into a big commitment.

The menu also lists Biasa at RM6.40, Daging Lebih at RM9 and a double-meat, double-noodle version at RM16.70; prices can change. For two people, the listed Buddy Meal starts from RM17.15. For a first order, ask for Mee Kolok and choose the regular portion. In Kuching, the name usually means springy noodles served relatively dry with savoury seasoning, rather than a soupy bowl. Sambal is listed separately, so I would add it gradually and ask about the current meat option before ordering. The online menu shows beef-related choices, but it does not prove halal certification; diners with strict dietary requirements should confirm directly at the stall. This Benteng/Satok-area stop is more useful for a night-food itinerary than an early breakfast: the listed schedule is 8:00 pm–2:00 am, Monday to Saturday. I would not plan it as the first meal after landing. Hours and prices may change, so check before travelling. The current address is No. 43, Block E, Medan Niaga Satok–Benteng, Jalan Matang, Kuching. Allow time to find the correct stall within the food-centre setting, and use the surrounding Satok/Benteng area as your navigation landmark. If you are walking from central Kuching, a short ride is more realistic than treating it as a casual stroll.
