Island Poké partners with Rosa’s Thai Cafe for guest chef bowl

“Grab-and-go” restaurant Island Poké has partnered with Rosa’s Thai Cafe to produce a guest chef poké bowl.

Rosa’s Thai red curry and laab Poké bowl is a celebration of one the restaurants signature dishes, combined with Island Poké’s take on Hawaiian-inspired poké.

The bowl contains miso chicken with Rosa’s red curry sauce accompanied by butternut squash laab salad, fresh herbs, pineapple salsa and edamame, served on a bed of sushi rice and topped with a prawn cracker.

James Porter, founder of Island Poké, said: ‘We’re completely thrilled to be working with Rosa’s Thai Cafe on this amazing bowl collaboration.

“It’s an honour to have Rosa’s Thai Cafe join our incredible roster of limited-edition poké bowls and the combination of Thai and Hawaiian-inspired flavours work brilliantly together, we can’t wait for our guests to try it.”

Saiphin Moore, founder, Rosa’s Thai Cafe added: “I’ve really enjoyed working with Island Poké on this project, Thai red curry has always been one of the most popular dishes on the menu at Rosa’s, and it’s deep, spicy flavours work really well with the zesty freshness of the laab and the soft pillow of sushi rice – for me, it’s the perfect summer lunch bowl.”
