Poké dinner at home

Home made poke salad

After visiting Poké in Kensington, I had my eyes open for some tuna.. now Safeway NEVER seems to have tuna in stock, so I didn’t think too much about it – but on 15% Tuesday (the first Tuesday of every month) … there it was… gorgeous Ahi Tuna!

Destiny!

The Kitchn had a recipe with a bunch of ingredients that sounded super tasty.. their recipe suggested that you could marinate the tuna for 2 hours for the best flavour – but that it would stay in the fridge for about 2 days. They said it would be best eaten the same day it was made though… however a bunch of other online recipes were  a lot more simple, and said the mix only needed to marinate for 5 minutes…

 

Po-ke Special Bowl

Almost a year ago, my friend Skye and I walked past a Poké place on center street – not far from an event we were heading to. We’d already had dinner… but we made a mental note to go in there and try it sometime.

Well… we never did. Instead, while out playing PokemonGo a while ago I was in Kensington, and walked past another Poké place. I was actually on my way to a recommended Ramen place… but it was hot…and I was hungry.. and Poké it was!

Boy was I glad for the detour!
