Greetings Dear Reader,
This may be the first “Second Thought” that I have written
as part of a series but it fits. Part of
the journey if we choose to live an "as you are going approach," is to realize
that there will unexpected joys and treasures along the way.
Thursday evening, I had arranged to meet one of my editors,
SG, at a place of her choosing for dinner.
Our conversation was good and we both saw how valuable she is as an
editor. What I wish to focus on is the
place she chose for our working meal together.
It was called WOW Poke & Juice. It is located in Lawrenceville, GA, just off
the interstate. Their address is 1030 Old
Peachtree Rd. NW. #204, Lawrenceville, Georgia.
I had never had Poke (pronounce PO-kay), but love trying new foods. It is a Hawaiian fusion bowl with amazing
choices and amazing flavors. The Menu includes many possible combinations
for vegan, vegetarian, and omnivore options.
Annie Kim, the owner is excellent at describing the choices
and assisting a novice in choosing. I
had shrimp and scallops with quinoa and vegetables. Annie mixed the sauces for me and applied
just the right amount. From the first
bite, I could tell that everything was fresh and prepared with care. I was amazed at the play of flavors and the value
for what I requested.
The staff was attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere was relaxed with comfortable
seating and soft jazz in the background.
The hot green tea was bright and well steeped. I was completely satisfied with the food and
the venue.
Not only would I recommend WOW Poke & Juice, but I will also be
returning there when I am next in the area.
What I experienced was the chance to enjoy something new as I journeyed
through a task that needed doing. The
task was also enjoyable and I valued sharing the meal with my editor, SG. I owe her a debt for suggesting Poke and
making a working dinner so lovely.
Feel free to ask questions Dear Reader. I am glad to tell you how excellent this cuisine
and the location I tried are. Perhaps we
can meet there for lunch some time. We need
to remember that the journey is brighter when we encounter new excellent things
as we are going.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
