poke bowl

Cubed fish dish

A poke bowl is a Hawaiian dish of cubed raw fish—traditionally tuna—served over rice with toppings like seaweed, avocado, and sesame seeds.

The name comes from the Hawaiian word for "slice" or "cut." Poke bowls gained widespread popularity in the 2010s as a fast-casual health food: I grabbed a poke bowl for lunch.
