This is episode 4 of our roadtrip series🚗 In case you missed our last vlog (I opened a roadside stall): ua-cam.com/video/5ugRq4_ZWZU/v-deo.html Thanks for watching! And make sure to give this video a thumbs up, and don’t forget to subscribe👍😁
eat pork/duck/chicken rice at the open air market if u guys in Miri.right in the middle of the city. Canada Hill for the First Oil Lady monument and its also a local hiking spot for the locals. Batu Niah National Park is a must go as well which is before reaching Miri city.
Nice video Steve and Ivana! That was Kong Piah you all ate at the night market 😂 I am glad you all noticed how tolerant and harmonious Sarawakian are to each other cultures and religion. It is uniquely Sarawakian. Sibu has a large Chinese Foochow (originally from Fujian province in China) majority population which reflects in the food and culture. You would notice that the older generation does not speak much Malay because Sarawak was under the British rule after the Brooke’s until 1963 when it joins Malaysia as a sovereign country (not a state). It was closer to the 1980s before Bahasa Malaysia was made compulsory here. Thus we still retains immigration laws that are different than the rest of the states in Malaysia. I am from Mukah but currently resides in the US (Indiana). My family is a mix of Melanau, Iban, Bidayuh, and Chinese. Some of my families are Muslims and some are Christians. We eat together, celebrate different festivities together like the true Sarawakian way. Enjoy the land of the Hornbills and may the experiences and the warmth of the Sarawakian people stay with you all forever.
17:48 you are wrong, steve. they speak english to you because you are mat salleh, they switch channel automatically. with iban, speaks iban. with malay, speaks malay. with chinese, speaks mandarin/dialects. see mat salleh, speaks english. some, can even speak melanau. 😁 (of course, not all are so multi-lingual lah~ it depends on their environment) 18:18 you noticed. this is one of the many differences between peninsula and east malaysia. 19:30 rice, noodle, porridge, dim sum, satay ... we can take anything and everything for any meal, be it breakfast, lunch, dinner. 😁 21:01 ivana, he said it's 70 cents in mandarin. then after you asked him in bahasa, he replied in malay that it is tujuh puluh sen (70 cents with a strong iban accent). so steve, he does speak malay, just it has a strong sarawakian accent that you are not used to. 😁 25:08 sugar and butter/margerine are used in the roasting process. you wont taste any sweetness because the sugar is so caramelized that it tastes bitter or a bit sourish sometimes.
What the coffee grinder man said is"I fry the coffee"..but him being Chinese so his pronunciation isn't clear because their 'r' always sounds like 'l'. So the raw beans are imported from Indonesia but he himself roasted the beans. There are 2 version..roasted with margerin and sugar (thus, the shiny look of the beans )or just roasted with sugar. They roast it in sugar to give it the smokey aroma and flavour. How come Ken is not around? The small bun filled with meat is called kompia..filled with minced pork. I spent my schooling years in Sibu and the chinese food is fantastic..too bad its hard to find in Kuching. Majority are of Foochow descendent.
Red Banana is rare and very rich taste, if selling outside Sarawak it will be very expensive. Kong Pia origin from Sibu, Roti John isn't popular in S'wak, Chicken Butt/Tail is one of the TOP choice local snack here. Did you notice there's no 'Ramly' Burger stall in Sarawak?
Agree with Steve that market video is the best. In fact, l have a special liking to this super duper interesting vlog. I have learned so much from watching this video. In fact some of the veggies, fruits, newspaper wrapped chickens and ducks can't be found in Peninsula Malaysia. This indoor market is indeed massive and there are lots of stuff to browse around. Thank you very much for this interesting market and night market tour. Enjoyed tagging along 😄
4:37 Sisik Ikan kek lapis is my favourite. The sweet-sour kind. 😋 9:06 It's a beautiful mosque. It is so great that it incorporated local designs. 22:45 You captured the very essence of Sarawak's life. That is simply how we are and who we are. Not that we don't have a few scums among us but their number is tiny. Not sure if "tolerance" is the word... more about "acceptance" imho - we-accept-that-you-are-different-and-we-respect-you-for-that. This is not just in cities like Kuching and Miri but small towns like Sibu too. I am so glad you come and experience a different side of Malaysia. 😊 Really enjoyed this video.
English language is the main language used at the days before 70s and after that the central government changed the education policy in Sarawak. So, many mid to elderly Chinese and some Ibans can’t speak Malay. But now younger Chinese can speak Malay
watched that nasik lemak..it is Sarawak styled of nasik lemak.less spicy.Mostly nasik lemak in sarawak they add in salted fish.BTW..Sarawak Malay in Sarawak are different .In Sarawak herself we have Melayu Miri/MelayuKuching/ Melayu persisir/ Melayu Semantan ..which have their own differences in pronouce..welcome to Sarawak..state with so many diversities
in my childhood days the drum in the mosque really came into action during the ramadan month, it was struck repeatedly as loud as it can to mark the break of fasting just before the azan, nowadays it's just the azan that mark the break of fast. other than ramadan month the drum just hung there silently through the year
The drum from the mosque is to signal the community for the call of prayers (azan). You just knock the drum in repeated style to inform the muslim the call of prayers which is 5 times a day.
They usually sell live chicken because back in the day the journey to market was far away from their home since there were not so many transportation available.
It's very common to find religious diversity/harmony throughout Sarawak. Even in most kopitiam/food court you can find a mixed of chinese & malay food stall side by side and we normally dine in together !!
The drum is called beduk. Ancient ago they use to call upon the prayer(azan/adzhan) . Now they don't really use it. Btw thank you for this video, another great info about one of the state in Sarawak where most we haven't been or seen. This is beautiful market. Love
Very interesting Central n night market in Sibu, I must go to visit Sarawak after watching your videos, thanks Steve n Ivana,show us more goodies videos in Sarawak.Cheers mate, oooha.
Between eating chicken butt and fresh chicken wrapped in newspaper, I think you have officially resigned from the "boneless, skinless" club! Thanks for sharing food market tours - I can't wait to go there!
I thought someone had explained about d drum u guys saw in d mosque. In d old days, before d presence of loud speaker, d drum in many sizes n versions r used to call for d 5 times of prayers in Islam. Hope u got a better explanation to this.
You guys should try the most expensive freshwater fish in Sarawak/Malaysia ..the "empurau"😋, if you take a boat ride to Kapit upriver from sibu jetty(perhaps stay a night), you might get it at a cheaper price😅, steam the fish to taste it's natural sweetness and deep fry the huge scales which taste like seaweed👍
25:12 I think what he meant is the beans you bought goes good with sugar. There are also beans if light roasted is better without sugar. When it's good with sugar, you can substitute with condensed milk and it will be superb!
In miri church is next to mosque. U cant find something like this in peninsular Malaysia. Only in sarawak or borneo we could live together peacefully sitting at the same table and even under the same roof without any problems despite the diffrences in religion, race and culture 👍🏻
Hi Ivana & Steve 👋🏻 this is definitely a complete course for food vlog 👍 the food looks super delicious , love the morning market so much there's so much to see and shop 🤣 it's humongous 👍 I might go there everyday if I visit Sibu. The unique flower is from papaya , I would boiled the flower a few minutes then you can eat like 'ulam' with sambal belacan or make 'kerabu bunga papaya' really delicious but a bit bitter after taste 😋 the night market was awesome place for 'makan2' 🤣 love to hear Steve's malay accent 👍🤣 the coffee too..really amazing so cheap yet delicious 👍 welldone guys on this food episode I really enjoyed watching 🥰😘❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Steve, the local mosque is Malay architecture with engraved local Malaysian flora features. Btw it is not Indonesian but you can find it in some Indonesian mosques belong to Malay communities there like in Riau and Sumatera. Traditionally all Malay mosques using the same architectures made from wood, however, since is not easy to build and costly it has been replaced with bricks and with influences of Arabs, Turkish or Central Asians eg Putrajaya Mosque. There are mosques in Malacca with influence of India and China. Btw the drum you found in the mosque is actually we call in Malay as 'beduk'. Many old mosques in Malaysia, Indonesia etc still have it to use before to call for prayers (azan). They also use it to announce of iftar (breaking fast) , for sahur (breakfast before fasting) and also when someone in the village dies.
l'm like you, Steve, "NO" rice for breakfast. I prefer bread or buns as it's not heavy....😀😂 Rice is ok for lunch and dinner but noodles are my favourite.
Yes for me, no for my other half (no for breakfast, yes for lunch and dinner). 😂 We don't tend to have a common breakfast but we accept each other's differences. 😄 We don't need to be the same to be together. 😁
Just enjoyed and loved this Vlogg! The masjid is so intricately beautiful. The market is awesome and me for one would be happy to spend half the morning there and that coffee stall is a coffee lover dream shop. Thank you JetlagWarriors for this super wonderful Vlogg. Eye opener indeed!👍👍👍👍👍
I missed Sibu Pasar my birth plc😉 Long time no makan Paku pakis and local veggies. Wah! Durian kek lapis with coffee🤤. Must go try their yummy cuttlefish Kang Kong, Kompiah and rojak. Oh boy! I missed Sibu foods so much now.
the drum is used to remind people the prayers time... also there are some mosque in Malaysia use the drum to inform the community that someone is died on that particular community....
Where you all now, sibu? Bintulu? Or Miri? If on the way to miri , do stop by Batu Niah to Visit Niah Cave ,Can't wait to see the coming 6 stars video😃, do stop by to see the really LONG HOUSE.
Wow...!! amazing exploration and informative discovery of the huge Sibu Market. Looks like you really like the Kek Lapis..haha LOL 😆 You should also try another famous Sarawakian local cake called "kuih hati parik". It's a delicious steamed cake made with lots of raisins, sultanas, prunes and mixed with choco paste. Once you try this....I'm very sure you'll crave for more...!! I enjoy watching your video...!! thank you very much for making this a good one.!! I'll be sharing your videos to my friends around and also abroad... yeah....!! 🤝👍🌟 Keep up the good work Steve & Ivana...!! ooohhh hhaaa..! 🥂🍻 BTW,....I hope it's still not to late to wish Ivana a very "Happy Birthday",..and many happy returns..!!🥳🥰🧚♂️ All the best to your road trip with the rest of the gang...!!👍💪😀😀🌟🌟
0:53 long long time ago, we only buy live chicken. frozen ones are not good, at all. according to my parents, tak sedap. especially my late father, he's the picky one. 😁 3:10 stinky bean, sedaaaaaaappppp! 3:31 i would avoid kek lapis that are too colourful..😁 stick to neutral colour ones. green is ok, if it is pandan flavour. 11:23 pulut panggang, 2 types : plain or with sambal dried prawn fillings. i like the one with fillings. 13:45 i prefer white coffee, because it is not roasted with sugar. gives you a more pure coffee taste. some malaysian coffee drinkers dont like it because it is not "kaw" enough for them. 15:00 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the Dodos really very cute!!! 15:40 he meant to say, the beans are imported from indonesia but he fries (roasts/processes) it here in sibu. (process involved : roast/fry with butter + sugar.)
Hey Steve & Ivana, Sibu is the Foochow city of Sarawak..the Foochows lately arrived in Sibu after the 1900s..& mainly speak their native Foochow language still
Hey ..steve & ivana♡..so nice vlog to show the largest indoor market in Malaysia.kek lapis serawak looks so delicious 😋 tq for sharing everything there. Take care have a nice weekend 😷🍌🥣🍲🥙🥪🌮☕🍨🌹🌹
Back in the day when there was no microphone, most mosques used drums or wood to make sound as a sign for morning daily prayer when people are still sleeping and when at night when there's not so much light.
Awesome!! That Shumai remind me of Famous Jakar Shumai, Sarikei (1 hours from Sibu!) I LIKE THIS VIDEO.. THERE ALOT OF TRANSITIONS VIDEO AND FLASH BACK!! 😅👍❤️
The drum at the mosque that you saw is called bedok. I'm not sure is it called in West MY, but that's what we in Kuching called it. The function is to sound it before the Maghrib Azan (called to prayer) in Ramadhan to notify that we can start eating. Back in the days, we also sound the drum before announcing of someone's death. It is still practice in rural villages as normally for Muslim village, masjid is normally the meeting/go to point.
Tamu or market is the heart of Sarawak town. To really experience the essence of Sarawak town, you guys can visit Tamu market. BTW, have you guys been to Kapit? A nice rural town accessible by road.
Wah you in Sarawak now. Good for you both, explore every state in the country. Each state has its unique culture and foods. Try experience them all if possible. I miss sarawak tho, because I was raised in Kuching for 8 years in the 80s. Now back in KL.
About the drum, in the old days there were no loudspeakers. So they hit the drums before making the call to prayers to inform the people that it was time to pray.
I love indonesian coffee. It has certain richness and earthy quality. The one in mostly in Europe, not so much. It has this weird fruity note. Ohhh and Brazilian coffee too. Their espresso is delish
Hello guys!, you guys really really having a good time together with the food. Wondering, if you guys get in touch with Abang Najib while on your tour?
Ivana looking just like local people. Im sure people surrounding dont know you are foreigner. Im sure both of you very enjoy foods, people and surrounding at Sibu and explore more about Sarawak.
This is episode 4 of our roadtrip series🚗

19:30 rice, noodle, porridge, dim sum, satay ... we can take anything and everything for any meal, be it breakfast, lunch, dinner. 😁

Big smiles from mom. Keep safe, healthy and happy.

9:03 That's a seriously beautiful mosque...wow. Good job capturing it's intricate woodwork designs, such high quality wood.
What?! The red banana stalls owner.
He said RM10 per kg. When he weighed it, it's 1.4kg. But he charged you guys only RM4. That's so nice of him. 🙆
If you use that banana to make banana cake, I tell you... it tastes like caramelised banana cake. Really yummy.
The uncle want to speak out fry by himself not fly from Indonesia
The night market uncle to told u Qi mao qian =rm0.70
Yes, big question mark. Maybe later the seller find out they are UA-camr scare to cut throat as will be on youtube

The salted fish and crunchy fried anchovies is the difference between the nasi lemak in West Malaysia and in Sarawak.
Thanks guy for introducing Sibu my hometown to the world. Kudos to JetLeg Warriors.
Going to pasar, there is no such thing as buying tooo much. It's just like " better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it" 😂😂😂😂😂
LOL this is exactly right
nice going to pasar
Nice video again , love it .
In Sarawak we eat fresh chicken , fresh fish and vegetables.
'Cos back in the days we didn't have refrigerator to store our wet food. The best thing we did was to turn them into pekasam/preserved or smoked them.
in my childhood days the drum in the mosque really came into action during the ramadan month, it was struck repeatedly as loud as it can to mark the break of fasting just before the azan, nowadays it's just the azan that mark the break of fast. other than ramadan month the drum just hung there silently through the year

So sad that I missed to meet you in Sibu...Anyway thank you for the good review about Sibu Market...

Coffee heaven! The smell around that store must have perked up your senses👍😀
Mingling with the fresh fruit and veg in a market always has a curious effect on Ivana. It's like she's on a little "high". Adorable.
D kek lapis Sarawak looked so good. Must be delicious. So colorful in many varieties.
I thought someone had explained about d drum u guys saw in d mosque. In d old days, before d presence of loud speaker, d drum in many sizes n versions r used to call for d 5 times of prayers in Islam. Hope u got a better explanation to this.
I miss Sibu. I was there a few months for National Service and it was fun, such fond memories of the place and people of Sibu
You guys should try the most expensive freshwater fish in Sarawak/Malaysia
..the "empurau"😋, if you take a boat ride to Kapit upriver from sibu jetty(perhaps stay a night), you might get it at a cheaper price😅, steam the fish to taste it's natural sweetness and deep fry the huge scales which taste like seaweed👍
that was so nice pasar...kek lapis is so special... very nice
25:12 I think what he meant is the beans you bought goes good with sugar. There are also beans if light roasted is better without sugar. When it's good with sugar, you can substitute with condensed milk and it will be superb!

Steve and Ivana ,welcome to my hometown -Sibu, Sarawak. 😊😊😊
Moning Day market in Malaysia almost well clean, well good planning,the building are in modern traditional style
Hope you enjoy Malaysia and find some peace, relaxation here.
0:53 long long time ago, we only buy live chicken. frozen ones are not good, at all. according to my parents, tak sedap. especially my late father, he's the picky one. 😁
3:10 stinky bean, sedaaaaaaappppp!
3:31 i would avoid kek lapis that are too colourful..😁 stick to neutral colour ones. green is ok, if it is pandan flavour.
11:23 pulut panggang, 2 types : plain or with sambal dried prawn fillings. i like the one with fillings.
13:45 i prefer white coffee, because it is not roasted with sugar. gives you a more pure coffee taste. some malaysian coffee drinkers dont like it because it is not "kaw" enough for them.
15:00 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the Dodos really very cute!!!

Hey ..steve & ivana♡..so nice vlog to show the largest indoor market in Malaysia.kek lapis serawak looks so delicious 😋 tq for sharing everything there. Take care have a nice weekend 😷🍌🥣🍲🥙🥪🌮☕🍨🌹🌹
I'm drinking the same coffee. I love it, hope it suits your taste buds....
Generally Malaysians speak Bahasa. However we might have issue understanding bahasa indonesia due to the slang though they might be quite similar
I like Michael's reaction after eating the durian cake.
Coffee seller my friend. Selling nice varieties of freshly ground coffee....
Nice 👍👍👍 bro thanks for your sharing video, I'm from Sibu sarawak
Back in the day when there was no microphone, most mosques used drums or wood to make sound as a sign for morning daily prayer when people are still sleeping and when at night when there's not so much light.
The large size drum is for signifying the time of prayer and usually hit several time just before the call of prayer.

Bunga betik means flowers from the papaya tree. Betik is malay for papaya
Sibu is a Chinese majority town (mainly Fuzhou) so you are kinda correct.
The drum at the mosque that you saw is called bedok. I'm not sure is it called in West MY, but that's what we in Kuching called it. The function is to sound it before the Maghrib Azan (called to prayer) in Ramadhan to notify that we can start eating. Back in the days, we also sound the drum before announcing of someone's death. It is still practice in rural villages as normally for Muslim village, masjid is normally the meeting/go to point.
Finally reached my hometown. 😍
Tamu or market is the heart of Sarawak town. To really experience the essence of Sarawak town, you guys can visit Tamu market. BTW, have you guys been to Kapit? A nice rural town accessible by road.
Wah you in Sarawak now. Good for you both, explore every state in the country. Each state has its unique culture and foods. Try experience them all if possible. I miss sarawak tho, because I was raised in Kuching for 8 years in the 80s. Now back in KL.
yes! We have now visited all states and FT in Malaysia!😁
Yes Ivana, rice for breakfast lunch and dinner, roti canai for supper 😂
The poultry wrap in newspapers are plainly cute.
Man the chicken my God❗❓🤗👏💯➕the they're sale the chicken,but the market I ❤️it💯➕ it's like in my country amazing 🤪🥰
About the drum, in the old days there were no loudspeakers. So they hit the drums before making the call to prayers to inform the people that it was time to pray.
welcome to Sibu! :)
25:05 they put sugar to caramelized it and margarine (or butter) during the roasting process
I love indonesian coffee. It has certain richness and earthy quality. The one in mostly in Europe, not so much. It has this weird fruity note. Ohhh and Brazilian coffee too. Their espresso is delish

The drum is used for call of prayer in the old days...now days it is replaced by microphone..
