Maki’s awardwinning chefs have prepared countless fusion dishes and sumptuous VIP dinners since its opening. They also treat the Kingdom’s gourmands to a monthly gastronomic celebration dubbed ‘15 Magical Moments of Fusion Cuisine’. “Guests have gasped with pleasure after trying some of our samples during the VIP dinners and the 15 Magical Moments dinners,” explains Steve Fernandes, Maki Bahrain’s restaurant manager. “You can now have that Maki experience duplicated at your home.” Maki Bahrain has most of its dine-in menu transferred onto a delivery menu that features dishes along with photos, explanations and prices. The menu includes the Bader maki, made with succulent salmon and named after a local celebrity. Prawn plum sauce is a dish drizzled with a sweet and tangy sauce. The black angus teppan with truffle is, as the name suggests, made with tender US-certified black angus beef. “We pack our food and sauces carefully in hot or cold preserving containers. We have several cars on standby to ensure you receive your order on time,” Steve explains. What is pleasing to guests is the availability of celebratory trays of your favourite maki and sushi items that come prepared in colourful assortments. Maki also offers catering services, bringing their exquisite fare to your party. E Call 17 522-733 or 36 999-102 or e-mail [email protected].
