The food & drinks look exceptional. Which one signature cocktail and meal would you recommend?

Ok, this is a tough question because we worked on a food menu which is great and an extensive drinks and cocktails card.

The Jumanji Tiki Cocktails are best sellers, composed of premium rum, pineapple and orange juice, falernum syrup & lemon vanilla bitter.

What are your aims?

Ultimately we want to create the first successful Mauritian franchise all over Africa. Before that we need to fine tune every aspect of the business and we are really attentive to the details and feedback.

My aim is to create something that will last long after me.

Can you reveal more on the franchise plan?

We have openings with serious investors who are interested to bring the concept to Antananarivo and Nairobi already.

The bigger the dream, the further you will reach and if you want to be part of
