Short description
Grab a visor! Help Capy the capybara run a breezy beach poke shack: build poke bowls, pour rainbow shave ice and roll warm malasadas in sugar at golden hour.
Long description
Capy the capybara runs a little poke shack on a sunny island beach, and the line is already forming up from the water. Roll up the awning, open the window and make every dish by hand, from golden hour into the evening, with the waves rolling in and the string lights coming on.
Build poke bowls with ahi, salmon or tofu, lay fresh fruit neatly on açaí bowls, pour rainbow syrup over fluffy shave ice, pour iced coffee, lilikoi lemonade and POG, roll malasadas in sugar, and press musubi with a seared slice and a band of nori.
Each step is graded, from GOOD to PERFECT: close to the line beats fast. Spend your tips on upgrades, rank up to unlock new dishes and Sunset Rush days, feed the hungry surfers on Big Swell Weekends, and find a message in a bottle on the beach every day.
