Paina Cafe - Poke Bowl

Paina Cafe - Home of the original (and best) poke bowls. Okay, so I'm a little biased because I work there, but they really are awesome.

This is our small poke bowl - brown rice, spicy sauce, limu ahi poke. All for $4.95! I get a spoon because everything is bite-sized and you can scoop up every last yummy bite!

Poke (poh-keh) is usually a blend of raw fish cubes mixed with a blend of hawaiian salt, sesame oil, onions - what this blend is depends on the type of poke and the chef. Sorry, I've honestly no clue what goes into ours. Limu is Hawaiian for seaweed. There are tons of different types and this one makes the poke crunchy. Ahi is tuna.
