Found a very good and worth poke bowl location in the CBD! Decided to try this place because was craving poke bowls and wanted to try somewhere new. Step 1 was choosing your base of brown rice, white rice, quinoa or lettuce. I wanted to go for the brown rice but it was all out so went for the quinoa instead which went rather well with the bowl. It was approx. $12 for 100g of salmon/tuna of the flavour of your choice and a unlimited no. of toppings like nori, tobiko etc. I decided to have a treat myself day so added $2 for spiced cashews and $1 for avocado. This is rly one of those places that are generous with their toppings so you feel that you are paying for both quality and quantity. I will come back again for sure 😛😛😛

Such a creative dish yet I still enjoy inari in its simplicity, with the sweet bean curd skin wrapping the seasoned sushi rice. The idea of adding the mentai is sure to satisfy mentaiko lovers though, highly recommended for those who want a mentaiko fix!!!

Featuring the tamago and sake mentai

We arrived at 11.25am to be the first ones bc we thought the place opened at 11.30am. Turns out it opened at 11.45am but thank goodness we went early because the queues formed so quickly that we were 3rd in a line of 20 over people. Ordered the famous bars chirashi ($12.80) and tamago, salmon and inari mentai (comes in pairs, photos to follow). We paid $20 each, how worth is that? So thankful we skipped the waiting and went straight to filling our famished bellies with fresh and quality Japanese food yet light on the wallet 😛😛 will come again on days that I have time to wait around for a Japanese fix.

Situated near the cross junction of Neil and Keong Saik road comes Loloku, a poke cafe whose food ties in very closely to the theme of the restaurant. Decorated by pink flamingoes, leafy cushions and pastel paintings, this cafe truly lives up to its "Hawaiian" name. Although the make-your-own-bowl was a little pricey ($20) as I added avocado and a soft boiled egg ($2 each) on top of the bowl of brown rice, hamachi ($16), almonds, seaweed salad, tobiko and edamame, it was worth every cent. The sweet and spicy house-made sauce brought together every ingredient to create a tasty yet refreshing bowl. Definitely some aesthetic plating in an aesthetic setting as well. I would highly recommend this cafe on any afternoon for anyone to come to eat a healthy yet hearty poke bowl in this cosy yet refined place. Other fixed menu items are also available for those who do not want to create their own bowl ($14 for regular, $16 for large).

After having the superbowls, we wanted something sweet to wash it down. What better way than to have 2 large acai bowls (cocoa and classic) I preferred the cocoa (the classic was more fruity), with the blend satisfying my chocolate cravings and the granola adding the extra crunch to the creaminess of the acai. Topped with fresh fruit and based on a coconut chia pudding, this acai is a close runner up to project acai.

The bowls turned out way better than I expected - for $12.90 I ordered the salmon and zucchini SuperBowl, comprising of miso dressed zoodles, edamame, cherry tomatoes, a fried egg and a perfectly cooked salmon. I was afraid that as with "healthy" food, it would taste bland but the entire bowl was well-seasoned and brimming with flavor. Definitely a meal that will leave you satisfy without the food comma. Scrambled eggs and pesto chicken SuperBowl were rly tasty as well, as I infer from the bites I stole from my friends 😛😛

Returned to Atlas after a long time despite having wanted to go there again / living really near and I'm so glad I did. Ordered the Super Bowl once again with kale, corn, toasted quinoa, chicken, eggplant, mushrooms and tomatoes for $19.30 (sadly there is GST now). However, the dish was so much tastier than I remember. Every component was seasoned nicely and came together to deliver a wholesome bite. If I traded the GST for this added deliciousness, I will definitely do it anytime.

Left full but satisfied!!!!! Ordered grilled squid, mentai salmon roll (thumbs up for purple rice!!!), amberjack, saba fish, assorted sushi, udon, soba, garlic fried rice, stingray bones etc. rly stuffed myself but 10/10 would recommend 😛😛 if I were hungrier, this will be more shiok. But given that I wasn't that hungry, this is an affordable yet high quality restaurant.

Tried one of the newer acai places today! I don't remember the name of the particular bowl but it was a superfood bowl ($12.90 so quite pricey) made from coconut water, acai, banana, strawberries, blueberries etc. plus topped with more berries, more bananas, almond butter, granola and sliced almonds. Athough I expected the texture to be thicker and creamier, not "watery", the taste of the individual elements were good and they came tgt pretty well! If only Coocaça had air conditioned sitting, it was sweltering today 🌞🌞🌞

I have lost count of the number of times I have been a patron at tanuki raw. However, I have not been here in a couple of months and decided, it is time to return. Ordered both of our favorites - Kaisen chirashi don // foie gras truffle yakiniku don and they did not disappoint. In fact, I feel that tanuki has even "upped their game" with their tasty mixed rice topped to the brim with fresh sashimi and saucy meat. My love for you will never die, tanuki raw 👌🏼👌🏼

Rodeo ($12.90) includes your choice of bagel, in my case was multigrain, stuffed with roast beef, leaves, mustard, sweet onion relish and cheese. The light yet chewy bagel was the perfect platform to showcase the flavorful filling that kept me going back for more. I will come back again to try something avocado-y or maybe something sweet 😛😛😛😛 this little cosy cafe is worth every cent
