Siniawan Night Bazaar

Where are we going? I asked as I climbed into A's brand new Mitsubishi ASX.

Siniawan.

What?? Lol .... I never expected that we were going there, that's why. Anyway, there were the 4 of us in the car - A, W, L and me. A and W had never been there, but L and I had. I went with AT the last time, but we went in the morning. This evening, we were going to the night bazaar. But it was too bad that it was drizzling .... otherwise it would be even more fun!

 People with colourful umbrellas, strolling along the wet street .... 

 Live band! 

 One of the restaurants called "The Post"
 Kampung pig and kampung chicken? Sounds organic! 

We walked along the street, and ordered some snacks to try ... and these were some of them.

 Pork roll roll
This was barbecued pork, well-marinated yet not overdone, and still retaining its sweetness. We liked this pork skewer. It came with peanut sauce as well, but actually, it was good enough to eat on its own without the peanut dip. 

 Oyster omelette
We felt that the oyster tasted too "raw", but the egg bits were nice. 

 Pan-fried meat dumpling
These get soggy so quickly .... that the skin became oily and soggy ... not nice.

 This purple "goo" was not bad, the pastry was made of sweet potato and the filling was mung bean. It was not so sweet, and the texture was nice and chewy. 

We went back to the post .... 

 Kampung pig stirfry
Not sure if kampung pig is the same as wild boar? Anyway, the taste was alright, and the meat was tender ..... I ate only a small piece; wild boar isn't a favourite of mine. 

 Not sure what veg is this, this was just average in taste. 

Kampung chicken
We felt that the best dish among the three was the kampung chicken .... tasted prominently of ginger. 

Eh? Where was the lamb? We thought we ordered but apparently we did not .... well .... 

Know what's great there? The durian tarts were absolutely fantastic! They were so limited that when I went back to buy them, they were all sold out!!!

W seemed to enjoy herself. She wanted to come back. In 2 weeks time when she'd be here again in Kuching. Lol. Till next time then.
