The kalo variety used for the poi this week is Pololū
Fresh, seasonal fruits and a thick layer of our in-house made coconut cream sit on top of a hearty serving of our best selling in-house poi. Apple banana and Big Island macnuts sprinkled on top make these poi-faits the poifect snack!

Poi is a traditional Polynesian staple made by pounding cooked kalo (taro) with small amounts of water until a pudding consistency is reached. This calorie-dense food can be left at room temperature to achieve a more sour and fermented flavor, reminiscent of Greek yogurt. Refrigerating will stop this process but results in firmer texture.
