MAA KIN DII

In the heart of Auckland City Centre, MAA KIN DII channels the pulse of Bangkok’s streets with a confident flair.

Casual, lively and deliciously aromatic, it is a place where bold flavours lead the way, transporting diners to Thailand’s vibrant corners without leaving the city.

Here, the sizzle of chargrilled pork and chicken meets a homemade Thai-style sweet and sour sauce, bringing a nostalgic hit of market-side indulgence. The menu reads like a love letter to fire, spice and freshness.

Grills star with chic on fire and the ever-succulent crying tiger, both made for dipping into punchy jaew. Herb-laced salads such as num tok tiger and yum salmon only cut through with lime and chilli, while steaming bowls of tom zap pork ribs and Mama Jumbo seafood deliver comfort with attitude.

Street-snack urges are met with wing zapp and crispy pork belly, and there is easy-going satisfaction in chic on rice or tiger on rice. To drink, a line-up of Thai teas tastes like home, crowned by the must-try sticky cocoa lava for a sweet finish.

Drop by for a taste of Thailand in the city and let the grills do the talking all at MAA KIN DII - no passport required!
