## Story

Island Poké have brought their Fresh Pacific Flavours to Portobello Road with a brand-new Island opening. They’re serving up fresh poké bowls daily alongside their popular poké bao and brand-new warm broth pots.

To celebrate the opening, the team have created a brand-new, limited edition Portobello poké bowl. Inspired by the brightly coloured houses in the area, the plant-based bowl will feature a teriyaki portobello mushroom mix, ginger pickled carrots, burnt sweetcorn salsa, red cabbage and charred broccoli. The bowl is completely plant based and will be finished with the brand’s most popular dressing, their house recipe sriracha mayo. Available until the end of April, the bowl will be priced at just £5.95 and available for walk in customers and for delivery exclusively in the Notting Hill area.

Island Poké will also be running a series of giveaway and activities to celebrate the launch featuring exclusive offers and promotions to neighbouring residents, both instore and online.

Island Poké founder James Gould-Porter said: “Opening on the iconic Portobello Road has always been a goal of mine for the brand and I’m beyond excited about the opportunity we’ll have to embed ourselves in the local community, bringing our Fresh Pacific Flavours to even more people in London.”
