A little while ago, while watching TV, I learned about a food called Hawaiian poke.

When I was in Hawaii, it didn’t look that tasty, so I just passed it by and didn’t remember it, but seeing it on TV made me really want to try it.

Actually, I really like the red part of tuna among sashimi, so I think the poke with tuna in it caught my eye again.

I was so curious about what poke tastes like, but I couldn’t exactly go all the way to Hawaii just to eat poke, so I started searching like crazy..

Luckily, there was a poke restaurant on Nonhyeon-ro near the hospital, so I quickly went during lunch break and got it to go.

#AlohaPoke

is the name of the restaurant.

What stood out to me was that the disposable container wasn’t plastic.

It was made of some kind of biodegradable straw? Or something like that.. I guess you could even finish eating and throw it into the woods, haha.

When I opened it up, it was a feast of all kinds of vegetables.

For someone like me who eats vegetables well, it wasn’t bad, but for people who like meat and dislike vegetables, it might feel like one of those vegetable rice bowls with a bit of tuna side dish mixed in?

I didn’t have high expectations, but the tuna sashimi didn’t seem to be in great condition. Maybe because it was mixed with soy sauce, it looked all dark and gloomy like how I felt inside.. tteolrori~

It felt like there were a lot of vegetables, but not quite enough tuna?

I just wished they had put in more so it would feel fuller..

When I mixed the vegetables, tuna, and rice together and took a bite, it was actually pretty edible.

But this is a little different from our bibimbap, because the vegetables aren’t cooked—they’re raw—so it felt like they didn’t go that well with the rice.

The tuna and vegetables seemed to go well together.

As I kept eating, grumbling a little and trying different combinations of vegetables, tuna, and rice,

before I knew it, the #HawaiianPoke bowl was nearly empty..

I finished it all...

Overall impression...

If it had a lot more tuna, it would be worth eating again at least once, but since there isn’t much tuna, I don’t really want it again!

It’s the kind of bowl that makes you mistakenly think it’s healthy.. and that’s about it...

As expected, Koreans need soup...
