Chef Jake Rand of Sushi Kosho has opened Salt & Sea, a fast-casual poke shop at The Barlow just steps from his longtime sushi restaurant<\/a>. It\u2019s the newest addition to the Sebastopol marketplace\u2019s outdoor food court that also includes Osito Style Tacos, The Farmer\u2019s Wife and Two Dog Night Creamery.<\/p>\n

The menu is focused on hearty Hawaiian-style poke bowls filled with warm seasoned rice, raw fish marinated in soy sauce and sesame oil, seaweed, avocado and Maui onions.<\/p>\n

Rand riffs on the classic, adding grilled pineapple and Macadamia nuts to the Maui Wowie ($24), and kimchi and gochujang sauce to the K-Pop ($21). He also creates more unique combos like the Jalape\u00f1o Jack ($22) with amberjack, yuzu soy sauce, cucumber, jalape\u00f1o and avocado. Spicy Tuna Nachos ($14) swap fried wontons for tortilla chips with fresh ahi tuna, yuzu crema, Korean chili sauce and avocado.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss the grab-and-go case with Japanese sandwiches. Similar to finger sandwiches, these trendy treats are made with soft, crustless white bread and are filled with either fruit or savory ingredients. At Salt & Sea, they come with clouds of cream and sliced strawberries or kiwi.<\/p>\n

The restaurant also offers boba tea, strawberry milk, taro matcha lattes, a\u00e7ai bowls and Rand\u2019s fresh Hawaiian POG, made with passionfruit, orange and guava juice.
\nOpen from noon to 5 p.m. daily. 6570 McKinley St., Sebastopol, Instagram.com\/saltandseapoke<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
