A great night was had by all at the first annual I Love Poke Festival at Don The Beachcomber on April 12th.

It was a great opportunity for the local restaurants to showcase their talents and the OC Restaurant Association to be Judges Liasons.

We have attached some fun photos of the chefs and the event.
