"A few weeks back I went to try out Ahi poke´in Fitzrovia, this was exciting for me, as I have not tried Hawaiian food before and I was anxious to know what type of dishes that Ahi poke´serve. With Ahi poke´you can choose their signature bowls, Sweet green, Heat wave, Oahu and Side chick or why not build your own poke´ bowl. 1. First, you choose the base, either brown rice, quinoa, kale, or udon noodles, I always go for udon noodles when eating out, so I decided to do something different, so I chose brown rice. 2. My bowl needed protein, and as I chose a large poke´ bowl, I could choose two protein choices, so of course, I went with my favourite choices; salmon and tuna. 3. To give my bowl and added taste, I mixed the sauces sweet ponzu and sesame shoyu. 4. Lastly, was the topping, for my bowl Edamame, sweet potato, kimchee cucumber, burnt corn and an extra topping of avocado, my bowl was completed and all for 9.95. When picking the bowl, I realised that the bowl was actually quite large but jam-packed with goodness, my choice to go with the brown rice was a great choice, as the brown rice sat nicely with the Tuna and Salmon. The burnt corn gave the bowl an unusual flavour tangy flavour. With the sesame shoyu tieing in a nutty flavour to the bowl. My bowl tasted so good and it made me feel better knowing that all the ingredients used in my poke´ bowl had positive benefits. Brown rice aids in cleaning the digestive system and is high in magnesium. Corn is an antioxidant, which protects the body, from diseases and is packed with lutein and zeaxanthin, which are two phytochemicals that promote healthy vision. Whilst salmon is known to be rich in Omega 3 and fatty acids, it is high in B vitamins and is a great source of protein. It is so cool, that you can mix and match when creating your own poke´ bowl, as the different tastes are endless. For dessert, to cleanse my palette I chose their pineapple chunks in Earl grey sprinkled with coconut shavings. This was a perfect way to end my meal. Left to sit in the Earl Grey residue, the pineapple chunks are both sweet and refreshing. What I love about this place, is the fast pace and the different consumers that come and go out of Ahi Poke´. From the university students, the locals and the office workers, all looking to pick up a healthy bowl of goodness! I also noticed that Ahi poke´ also sells through Ubereats and the orders seemed to be pouring in! So if you live locally, why not pick up a bowl? Price:"
