New in town: Moam Poke & Acai, Beach Rd — Indonesian-inspired poke bowls

Poke bowls are all the rage, decked out in their colourful cubes of raw fish and beds of salad and grains. It makes for a great addition to any Instagram feed and promises a slew of health benefits. But how does it fare in taste? For top-quality Poke, come on down to MOAM Poke & Acai for some nutritious and delicious bowls.

Nestled along Beach Road, Men On A Mission (MOAM) Poke & Acai serves up bowls of poke goodness like never before. Here, the bowls are empowered by Indonesian flavours and feature thoroughly unique ingredients that will surprise the unsuspecting diner. 

Take, for example, the Gili Bowl (S$14.90). This one’s an impressive amalgamation of fried chicken thigh, cucumber, cherry tomato, pineapple, red cabbage, bawang goreng, spiced peanut, and keropok udang. There’s a piquant kicap manis sauce that is slathered over the chicken here. I reckon that you’d be hard-pressed to find these unique fusion elements in poke bowls elsewhere.

Another one of MOAM Poke & Acai’s unique offerings is the Bora-bora Bowl (S$14.90). Here, a heady combination of fried ebi, sambal belado mayo, cucumber, cherry tomato, pineapple, red cabbage, pickled radish, furikake, tobiko, and keropok udang sit within each serving. It’s a refreshing change from the traditional inclusion of raw fish, where instead crispy battered prawns are featured.

They don’t just do poke. Açaí is the other speciality over at MOAM Poke & Acai, where each serving comes chock-full of açaí berries and topped off with a plethora of fruits. The newest addition to their menu is the Rio (S$10.90/ S$15.90), which presents a fruity mix of raspberry sorbet, açaí, cranberry, banana, strawberry, blueberry, dragon fruit, kiwi, cacao nibs, and cookie drizzle. It’s a bowl that is both visually striking and rewarding to the body. Get this if you’re searching for some guilt-free indulgence.

The impressive selection at MOAM Poke & Acai will entice the primmest of diners, making this spot in Beach Road one to check out.
