Although I am not in anyway a connoisseur in poke nor Hawaiian cuisine, Pololi which in Hawaiian means "hungry" has opened the doors and has lured me into a world of Hawaiian cuisine which I'm eager to explore...With a small but select menu, a poke bowl costing $90 contains a base of either rice (brown or sushi rice), salad or a mixture of both, as well as 2 choices of proteins. When I arrived, I was very uncertain as to what I should order but I was surprised and flattered by the sincere servic
With a small but select menu, a poke bowl costing $90 contains a base of either rice (brown or sushi rice), salad or a mixture of both, as well as 2 choices of proteins. When I arrived, I was very uncertain as to what I should order but I was surprised and flattered by the sincere service and help the employees had to offer as they gladly allowed me to try a few pieces of poke so that I could make my decision. In addition, before handing me and my friend the pieces of tuna, she asked if we had any allergies which was very considerate and rare in most Hong Kong restaurants. Eventually, I decided to go with a half and half base with their limu poke and wasabi mayo poke. The limu poke was slightly weaker in flavour compared to the wasabi mayo poke considering the mixture included shoyu and ginger. However, in compensation the slightly crunchy seaweed enhanced the overall texture of the dish. On the other hand, I loved the wasabi mayo poke with just the right amount of heat to stimulate my appetite and within minutes I had finished the bowl and was craving more.
Overall, Pololi was a great experience and writing this review makes me pololi all over again. Although the shortage of seats was a small downside to the meal, this did not hinder the dining experience greatly and I definitely look forward to visiting again to try out different flavours in the near future.
