From Coconut Tom Yum to Crispy Pork—Hongti’s Flavor Parade

#batamguide Welcome to Hongti Seafood & BBQ, Batam’s flavor playground where Chinese comfort food meets BBQ brilliance. Tucked in Komplek Trikarsa Equalita, this spot serves up yam fish soup, braised pig trotter, and coconut tom yum that’s literally served in a coconut shell,yes, it’s that extra. The vibe? Open-air, unfussy, and buzzing with locals who know good food when they taste it. From lang ru fried pork to herbal chicken (only on weekends!), every dish is a bold statement. And the prices? Surprisingly affordable, with generous portions that make sharing a must. It’s not just a meal, it’s a culinary adventure with a side of mosquitoes and begging cats (true story), but hey, that’s part of the charm. So come curious, come hungry, and let Hongti show you why it’s Batam’s go-to for soupy slurps and smoky bites
