The Poke Bowl is a dish straight out of the small island of Hawaii, halfway between a chirashi and a salad, which has been creating a buzz for a few years now. As Paris prepares to host its first Poke Festival, we’ve compiled a list of our favorite addresses !
Yes, that’s right, Paris will soon be hosting a Poke Festival, to be held at the Cité de la mode et du design on July 29 ! On the Program: tropical DJ sets and Hawaiian entertainment, between two healthy bowls of course!
In the meantime, you can always treat yourself at one of our favorite addresses :
SHAKA Poke
At SHAKA Poke, chef Anthony Denon, formerly of Ducasse, is responsible for the recipes. He has carefully selected the ingredients that go into his fresh, creative, bistronomic Pokés. Choose à la carte or make your own !

The Pokawa
An address that doesn’t leave vegetarians out ! Because tofu poké isn’t anyone’s dream, Pokawa offers a falafel alternative to its raw fish. Complete, gourmet bowls, generously seasoned with delicious homemade sauces !

Marcelo Coffee
A warm and friendly new café on rue Saint-Denis, this cosy little cocoon (and its tiny terrace) offers top-quality products and recipes, served in a radiantly good mood. It’s organic, it’s tasty and it’s fresh– in other words, it’s perfect!

Here’s a place to make your own custom poke bowl: choose your grain base (vinegared rice or quinoa), add cubes of fish or tofu and the vegetables and fruit of your choice !
