I love Poke!

Auuuright!!!!

This Wednesday April 20th is the second annual “I love Poke Festival”. This festival is a celebration of island life and culture, as well as where 15 local chefs compete for the title of Best Poke in San Diego. Nuts Brah!!! 

Come check it out and  spend the evening at the beautiful Bali Hai Restaurant right on the San Diego Bay overlooking downtown San Diego entertained by live music and dancing by New Zealand’s Kahurangi Maori Dance group.  Guest also get to sample island fare from 30 local restaurants and local celebrity judges will vote for the best poke.   There will be a silent auction and raffle full of prizes full of fine art from Wyland and surf photographer John Rowe, SUP surfboards, Del Mar Marriott hotel packages, signed Kala ukulele by Jake Shimabukuru, several restaurant gift cards, and much more! 

  

The best part of the night is that a portion of the proceeds will go directly to our 501 (c) 3 non-profit foundation called The Kona-California Scholarship.  Our good friends started this foundation 6 years ago to help the youth from Hawaii attend college in California. To date we have given away over $15,000 and we rely on events such as this. We are thrilled to be a part of this event and would love it if you could join us on Wednesday.
