The Big Pit has always been an area where many foodies discover delicious food. In addition to specialty coffee shops, there is now a tropical island-style barbecue bar Maka Hiki Tropical Bar & Grill that has recently opened, bringing exotic cuisine and a variety of innovative tropical cocktails!
Maka Hiki embodies a casual style, with interior design featuring striking colors as the main theme, creating a comfortable and vibrant feel with tropical patterns, warm textured woods, and bamboo. The restaurant’s dishes draw inspiration from island cultures of the Caribbean, Polynesia, the Indian Ocean, and Southeast Asia, showcasing a unique Tiki style.
Signature dishes include refreshing starters, such as the “Mauritian Tamarind, Mango and Pineapple Salad” sprinkled with chili salt, with a tangy and appetizing flavor. Additionally, there is the “Spicy Beef Salad” with seared Australian beef tenderloin, the “Salmon Crudo” drizzled with cheese and chili grapefruit juice, and the “Hawaiian Poke Tuna” served with instantly melting tuna.
Must-try signature main dishes include “Grilled Mahi Mahi,” which is grilled swordfish with coconut milk, chili oil, and fried scallions curry sauce, rich in flavor. Another highlight is the grilled “Lombok Baby Chicken,” 48-hour slow-cooked “Slow Cooked Beef Rib,” and the “Seychelles King Prawns” inspired by the pirate island nation of Seychelles, grilled after dipping the prawns in homemade masala spices, offering a unique taste.
Dessert lovers can taste the smooth “Rice Pudding” cooked with creamy coconut milk, as well as the chewy “Homemade Rhum Baba” soaked in selected oak barrel aged rum, fragrant and sweet. For those who want to have a little drink, you can choose from a series of signature cocktails, among them the “Maka Hiki Punch” based on rum, combined with Maraschino cherry liqueur, grapefruit, and lemon, bringing a sweet and sour taste. The “Tik Tok Tiki” based on tequila adds spicy Thai red chili, playful and spicy, with a quirky appearance, satisfying the desire to check in!
