If there's one place my Kuching friends keep telling visitors to go, it's Siniawan Night Market. And honestly? Now I get why. This old town comes alive every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evening. The whole street is lined with traditional wooden shophouses and red Chinese lanterns — giving it this incredible rustic, old-west vibe. That's why locals call it Kuching's very own "Cowboy Town."

This is THE signature dish of Siniawan — sticky rice cooked inside a pitcher plant. It has a subtle earthy fragrance and a texture you won't find anywhere else. Must try. Other recommended eats: Lui Teh (traditional Hakka tea rice) and Ngo Hiang (five-spice rolls) — both local favorites.

Another wrote: "Best pitcher plant rice I've ever had. Period." TripAdvisor reviews rave about the atmosphere — "Feels like stepping back in time. The food variety is amazing and very affordable." I arrived while it was still daylight, and watching the lanterns slowly light up as dusk settled was honestly magical. People sitting on tiny stools along the street, eating, laughing, kids running around — it's that relaxed Sarawak vibe you can't get anywhere else.

老实说，我第一次去新尧湾夜市，纯粹是因为朋友死命推荐。结果去了之后…嗯，我明白为什么了 这个地方每到周末五、六、日晚上就会活过来。整条老街挂满红灯笼，木屋老店配上人来人往，氛围感直接拉满。有人叫它「古晋牛仔镇」，因为真的太有西部老镇的味道了。 [image: 1781575523887-1-tripadvisor.jpg] 来源：TripAdvisor 说到吃的，第一个要提的就是 猪笼草饭（Lemang Periuk Kera）！这个真的是 Siniawan 的标志性食物，其他地方很少见到。糯米塞进猪笼草里烤，吃起来带一点淡淡的草木香，口感很特别。还有 Lui Teh（擂茶） 和 Ngo Hiang（五香） 也是 locals 必推。 [image: 1781575524135-2-amazingborneo-1.jpg] 来源：Amazing Borneo Google Maps 上有人留言说：「每次从古晋市区开车过来都值得，食物选择超多，气氛一流。」另一个 review 说：「这里的猪笼草饭是我吃过最好吃的，没有之一。」 TripAdvisor 上也有人写道：「The atmosphere is incredible — feels like stepping back in time. The food variety is amazing and very affordable.」 我是周末傍晚到的时候天还亮着，等到灯笼亮起来的那一刻，整条街的氛围完全不一样。大家坐在路边小板凳上吃吃喝喝，小孩子跑来跑去，那种 relaxed 的感觉真的很 Sarawak。 [image: 1781575524381-3-amazingborneo-2.jpg] 来源：Amazing Borneo [image: 1781575524587-4-borneotravel-1.jpg] 来源：Borneo Travel Network 实用资讯： 位置：古晋新尧湾旧街（Old Siniawan Town） 时间：每逢星期五、六、日，傍晚开始到深夜 交通：建议 Grab，从市区大约 RM30 左右 ️ 停车：自驾的话车位有限，建议早点到 消费：大部分食物 RM5-15，丰俭由人 [image: 1781575524779-5-borneotravel-2.jpg] 来源：Borneo Travel Network 如果你还没去过新尧湾夜市，真的找一天周末去走走。适合一群朋友去扫街，也适合情侣去走走拍拍。 你去过新尧湾夜市吗？最喜欢吃什么？留言分享一下

有人讲去 Siniawan 只是为了吃东西，坦白讲我以前也这样想。 直到有一次我傍晚 5 点多到，亲眼看着整条老街从安静变成灯火通明——那个过程，才是真正的 magic。 新尧湾（Siniawan）这条老街可不是普通的 pasar malam。1840 年就已经存在的小镇，当年还是 James Brooke 白拉惹时代的重要据点。整条街只有 24 间木板老店屋，一到周末傍晚，红灯笼亮起来的时候，整个氛围直接穿越回百年前。我朋友第一次去的时候讲："感觉像走进电影场景。" 好了，讲重点——来这里吃什么？ 必吃清单： 🥢 Lemang Periuk Kera（猪笼草饭） — 这是 Siniawan 的招牌！糯米塞在猪笼草里面蒸熟，香气独特，别的地方找不到。 🥢 Ngoh Hiang（五香肉卷） — Sarawak Tourism 官方的 top 5 推荐之一。先蒸后煎，外脆里嫩，配一罐冰啤酒简直人生巅峰。有个阿伯跟我讲他每个星期来就是为了这盘 Ngoh Hiang。 🥢 蚝煎（Oyster Omelette） — TripAdvisor 游客点名推荐的菜。这里的蚝煎炸到薄脆像 roti tisu，蚝又大又新鲜。 🥢 Sarawak Laksa — Anthony Bourdain 说是"breakfast of gods"，在 Siniawan 吃别有一番风味。椰浆汤底够浓，虾也新鲜。 🥢 Manok Pansoh（竹筒鸡） — Dayak 经典菜，鸡肉塞竹筒里慢煮，香茅和木薯叶的香味直接渗透进肉里。 🥢 Kolo Mee — Sarawak 人的灵魂食物，Siniawan 的版本一样不输市区。 真实评价整理： 从 Google 评论、TripAdvisor 到本地 FB 群组，综合来看游客喜欢的是氛围和特色食物，但也有一些吐槽——周末人多时停车位很难找，部分摊位价格比市区略高。一个 Wanderlog 用户的评论很中肯："有些偏贵、炸物太多，但整体氛围和一两条街的 vintage feel 还是很值得来。" 我个人觉得：如果你当它是"平价路边摊"可能会有点失望。但当作"周末 outing + 百年老街体验 + 吃特色美食"的话，这个 package 是蛮值的。 实用资讯： 营业时间：每逢星期五、六、日 傍晚 6pm 开始 地点：Siniawan Old Town, Bau（距古晋市区 21km，约 30 分钟车程） 入场：免费！吃多少花多少 交通： Grab 从 Kuching 市区约 RM30（建议安排回程，晚上那边 Grab 比较少） 自驾的话 Parking 位有限，建议 5:30pm 之前到 公共巴士 Bus No.2 从 Jalan Masjid 出发，单程 RM3.50（但不 recommend，时间不准） Tips： 最好 5:30-6pm 到，看夕阳 + 灯笼亮起来的过渡 带现金！大部分摊位不收卡/eWallet 穿舒服的鞋，整条街是石板路 可以顺便安排白天去 Bau 的仙洞或风洞，傍晚再来 Siniawan [image: 1781230300144-img1.jpg] 来源：TripAdvisor [image: 1781230300408-img2.jpg] 来源：New Straits Times [image: 1781230300710-img3-resized.jpg] 来源：Amansar Travel [image: 1781230301194-img4.jpg] 来源：Amansar Travel [image: 1781230301390-img5.jpg] 来源：Trip.com 你去过 Siniawan Night Market 吗？留言分享你最喜欢吃的摊位！或者有什么 hidden gem 要爆料？ #古晋 #Kuching #Siniawan #新尧湾 #Sarawak #周末好去处 #KuchingNightMarket #古晋夜市
