Bitterly cold wind and we couldn’t get a table inside at Raw Bar so stopped in here at Harry’s Bondi. Modern and hip feel, decor and an interesting menu. One of our party tried the beetroot latte, and couldn’t say she’d go back for a second helping. I decided I’d tried a poke bowl, the first time in Australia after trying one in NYC a few weeks ago. The waitress charmingly mispronounced it as ‘poke’ (its poh-kay, but I didn’t want to seem like a wanker to correct her).
As in NYC, I found a poke bowl a pretty perfect concept. Dressed raw fish, with just enough other things (crispy curly lettuce, some Japanese seaweed salad, a few soba noodles) to make it substantial. $25.
All in all, a nice place to hang out for a late Friday lunch…
