Something Wicked This Way Cooks. 🌙
October at Makai is here. Consider yourself bewitched.
This month we're going deep into Filipino culinary tradition. Hawaii and Beyond in every sense.
𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐞 𝐋𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐚 $17
Mushrooms, mung bean sprouts, carrots, red onion, and cilantro, hand-folded in a traditional lumpia wrapper, sealed with egg wash, deep-fried until golden, and served with banana ketchup. Crispy, bright, completely addictive. 🌿
𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐃𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐧 $27
Pork belly slow-cooked with rice w**e vinegar, fish sauce, jalapeños, brown sugar, onion, garlic, ginger, and tamarind paste. In true Dinuguan tradition and in the spirit of the season, a touch of pork blood gives this stew its depth and haunting richness. Served with garlic fried rice. Order it. Trust it. Come back for it. 🫙
