Overview
They're two of the biggest food trends filling stomachs around the globe, and they're making their way to Brisbane. We're talking about poke bowls and sushi burritos. One is a Hawaiian salad dish combining rice, greens and raw fish, while the other is exactly what you think it is — and they'll both be available at South Bank newcomer Suki from November.
In fact, the latest venture from The Ole Group (aka the folks behind Mucho Mexicano, Ole Restaurant and Mister Paganini) will be Brisbane's first specialty sushi burrito and poke bowl eatery. And, while pre-made options will be available, Suki won't just providing its scrumptious offerings from a set menu. Making your own will be all the rage here, with diners selecting the grain base, protein filling, other accompaniments and type of wrap for their burritos, and stepping through a similar process for their bowls.
A completely different venture to Fortitude Valley's new Suki Japanese & Sushi (although some confusion is more than likely), Suki takes over the space Italian restaurant Dell U'Go previously called home on Grey Street — and they won't be alone. A ramen joint will also sharing the site. While it doesn't currently have a name, anywhere that serves up more ramen is fine by us.
Suki will open at 182 Grey Street, South Bank from November.
