Aloha – Konnichiwa – Hello! A new Hawaiian and Japanese fusion poké (pronounced poh-kay) house will be opening soon at CityLine, Richardson.
Poké is a marinated raw fish (aka sashimi) dish most commonly found in Hawaii, and in the past few years this delectable meal has hit the mainland big time. Poké is the Hawaiian verb for “section” or “to slice or cut”. Traditional forms are aku (an oily tuna) and he’e (octopus). Increasingly popular ahi poké is generally made with Yellowfin tuna. Adaptations may feature raw salmon or various shell fish as a main ingredient served raw with the common “poké” seasonings.
