Little Bull is sincere, nostalgic comfort food, inspired by the palates of first-generation immigrant kids. Pocho cuisine is not a gimmick. Like Oscar, it’s a little bull-headed, but with no bullshit. It means more than loaded terms like “New American” or “modern Mexican.” And it’s authentic to Chef’s personal experience.“American food is undefined. But it’s been designated to certain ideas and people. It’s actually evolving, as much as our landscape is a melting pot. As much as my own identity as a first-generation American and chef.”Pocho started as a term used by people in Mexico to poke fun at the “American” kids who speak Spanglish. At Little Bull, pocho cuisine showcases the evolution of being a chef in America, inspired by every immigrant and their growing influence on our food.

    We had an excellent experience at O-Ku Sushi in Raleigh. What stood out most was the freshness and quality of the fish. Everything tasted exceptionally clean and fresh, with absolutely no unpleasant fishy smell or aftertaste—something that really speaks to the quality of the seafood and how carefully it is handled. The fish had excellent texture and flavor, the presentation was beautiful without being overdone, and the service was attentive and professional. The atmosphere also made for a very enjoyable evening. If you appreciate quality sushi where the freshness of the fish truly matters, O-Ku is definitely worth visiting. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and will absolutely return.
