Poké is native Hawaiian cuisine, traditionally made up of diced fresh fish served as an appetizer or main course. Modern twists by poké bowl companies include chicken, tofu, shrimp or salmon with strong influences of Japanese and Korean cuisine. Think of it as deconstructed sushi with all your favorite proteins, mix-ins, toppings and crunches with your favorite sauces! A customized bowl, salad or wrap every time!
