Mount Pleasant, SC Business Spotlight: Kahuna Poke Bar
Why Kahuna Poke Bar? Their mission says it all:
“After visiting the Hawaiian Islands, the owner fell in love with Poke. Sushi was a staple in her weekly diet. However, she found it wasn’t ideal for someone on the go, who has a busy schedule. She also found it to be pricey and limited. When she returned to Charleston from Hawaii, she wanted to create a place where people could enjoy quality food without missing a beat in their busy lives, while being affordable for everyone. This vision, combined with a love for sushi, inspired our mission to create fresh poke without sacrificing taste, health, and quality in a fast-casual restaurant environment.”

What is Poke Bowl?
Poke (pronounced POKE-AY, not POKE-EE) is served all over Hawaii, and now many cities throughout the mainland. Poke is a raw fish salad, traditionally made with ahi tuna or sashimi grade salmon, tossed with onions and a soy-sesame dressing. In Hawaii, there are many different types of poke made from a variety of seafood (Squid Salad is Popular!) and dressings. Poke shops mainly serve poke bowls, big bowls of rice or other bases like salad topped with a generous scoop of poke and your choice of toppings.
You’ll be happy to know, poke bowls are not only addictively delicious but also a nutritious way to celebrate the Hawaiian food trend, especially when it’s piled high with nutrient-packed toppings! #betterthansushi #IBowlMyOwnWay
What is Acai Bowl
One of the most delicious members of the superfood squad—a fruit you’ve probably seen all over your social media. Açaí (pronounced ah-sigh-EE) is best known for being the not-so-secret ingredient in picture-perfect frozen bowls, topped with your choice of other healthy ingredients.
Açaí bowls are the latest trend in providing a healthy and even more delicious alternative to frozen yogurt or ice cream. Açaí berries mostly found in Brazil, resemble grapes are actually quite low in sugar, containing close to 0 grams per 100g serving.
The food is so refreshing and the staff is amazing…
