Every dish is crafted in house with responsibly sourced fish, fresh produce and house-made sauces. Even their drinks and snacks are made from scratch: think refreshing “Wai Tai” beverages made with coconut water and a side of spicy cassava chips to complement each bowl.&nbsp;</span></span></p><p><span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255);"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;text-align:left;">On May 8, we kicked things off with in-terminal festivities complete with hula dancers. And until May 30, you can stop by our tropical tasting stations around the terminal to try out some sweet sips from Hula Poké, illy Caffè, Joe & the Juice and World Duty Free.&nbsp;</span></span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Snap a shot of yourself en route to paradise at our WestJet photo station. To find it, head down the stairs after you pass through the Domestic Security Checkpoint and keep an eye out for the beach.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Wanna keep the party going? We’re offering two lucky passengers the chance to win a round-trip flight to Hawaii thanks to our friends at WestJet! Check out our Instagram page for more details on how to enter.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Next time you fly domestic, start your vacation early with a stop at Hula Poké near Gate B14. It’s the 12<sup>th</sup> local brand to open a storefront at YVR since 2022—and we’re going to keep the good times rolling with plenty more great food & beverage options on the way.&nbsp;</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[airmail,Hula Poke,food and beverage]]></category>
