Poke Bowls in Lausanne

Eating Swiss produce in an original, eco-friendly way: that is the challenge Le Spot has set itself. Located on rue du Midi, this little azure-blue café offers a tempting menu of poke bowls. This dish is a speciality from Hawaiian culture. It comes as beautiful colourful bowls, topped with various tasty ingredients.

Swiss Produce

Le Spot ; Swiss Indulgence

Poke bowls have spread widely in Switzerland. Le Spot, however, has chosen a menu that highlights typically Swiss produce. Salmon, chicken and tofu thus come from Swiss suppliers. This bold choice is a real ecological challenge. By opting for local produce, the café supports Swiss producers. It also limits its carbon footprint, an increasingly essential gesture in everyday life.

Poke, a Hawaiian Speciality

The word poke means “to cut into pieces” in Hawaiian. Originally, the islands’ fishermen seasoned their raw catch with salt and seaweed. The dish then evolved with soy sauce and sesame oil. Served on a bed of rice, it became the poke bowl. The trend spread worldwide in the 2010s. Everyone now builds their own bowl, from fish and tofu to vegetables and sauces.

Le Spot ; Vegan and Fish

And Morning Food

Once inside, the menu written on the wall guides your order. You start with the rice base, then add the protein and vegetables. Each bowl comes in two sizes. The menu offers many vegetarian and vegan options, as well as fish. On the side, several homemade drinks complete the meal. Enough to add a touch of colour to the lunch break. Le Spot also features breakfasts, including fruit poke bowls. They are made with seasonal produce, with a constant concern for limiting the ecological footprint. Online ordering also lets you pick up your bowl.

Little known before, these friendly dishes from the other side of the world leave an excellent memory. An address to keep in mind for tasty, colourful meals. For other indulgent bowls, Green Gorilla (in French) focuses on açaí. Flavours also offers salads and homemade cakes (both in French).
