🌟 Foodie Spotlight

Might be a household name in the Poke world, here’s my source of comfort after long days…

Poke Theory 🐟

Poke Theory takes the humble poke bowl and turns it into a playground of endless combinations 🥢

The fun lies in how you can mix and match - from salmon, tuna, or even sous-vide dashi chicken, to a rainbow of veggies like edamame, avocado, and pickled beetroot. Every bowl feels like a new creation, whether you’re going light and refreshing or hearty and indulgent.

I love how filling it gets, and the toppings add crunch, zest, and a burst of colour. The freedom to build your own bowl and flavours is always exciting, because no two bowls ever have to be the same!

🖐️ Top Picks of The Week!

You might have heard of these places, here are a few of my favourites!

🐓 The Daily Cut

The Daily Cut is a CBD staple for those looking to fuel up with hearty, protein-packed bowls. With petite bowls starting at $10.50, you can build your bowl with hearty mains like herb-crusted dory and savoury supplements such as brussels sprouts and sweet soy tempeh. I absolutely love the ginger ponzu sauce, a tangy complement to your bowl.

🥬 Supergreen

Supergreen lives up to its name by serving up bowls that are as wholesome as they are satisfying. Think fresh greens, lean proteins, and flavour-packed dressings that make healthy eating feel anything but boring. Their DIY bowls start at $10.30. If you’re unsure of what to get, you can choose from their signature bowls, curated with bold flavours e.g. Mala Prawn Bowl served with fresh mala prawns and purple cabbage!

🥑 Heybo

Heybo takes the everyday grain bowl and adds a global twist, with flavours inspired by cuisines from around the world. From Mediterranean to Asian-inspired toppings, there’s always something new to try. Though I usually opt for Build Your Bo, which starts at $11.90, their Sunday Roast is a hot favourite and packaged with my top ingredients - Chargrilled steak, organic quinoa, roasted pumpkin wedge, charred corn and lemon butter!

🥙 Grain Traders

Grain Traders is all about mindful eating with a creative edge, serving grain bowls that balance nourishment with bold flavours. Their line-up of mains - from donburi salmon to tuna tataki - are elevated by vibrant veggie sides and punchy sauces. The steak parrillada is a highlight, delivering smoky-sweet richness in every bite. Gather Your Harvest (cute name for DIY) is on the pricier side - starting at $17.50.

🗞️ What’s Newsworthy

If you’ve not heard, McDonald’s is launching BTS TinyTAN-themed Happy Meals in two editions: the Throwback Edition (Sep 25 to Oct 15) and the Encore Edition (Oct 16 to Nov 12) 🪩

Each edition offers seven blind-box figurines depicting BTS members in distinctive outfits. The Throwback set features classic looks, while the Encore set sports McDonald’s-inspired outfits 🕺🏻

So cute, ARMYs better get them while stocks last!
