the name “Poio” is a play on words.
“The Spanish word for ‘chicken’ is pollo, spelled p-o-l-l-o,” he explained, noting that the double “L” in Spanish often mimics the “Y” sound in English. “But English speakers unfamiliar with the Spanish language will pronounce the word as pol-lo.”
In order to have everyone pronounce the restaurant’s name the same way, Mortera landed on “Poio” — which is also a reflection of growing up around both English and Spanish, he added.
