1. Choose a base: white rice / brown rice / soba
2. Pick a bowl:
a. Hokkaido Dive - ~$17.95 (uni, Ahi tuna, caviar, corn, edamame, crab meat, carrot spiral, beet spiral, golden beet spiral, cucumber, cherry tomato, red onion slice seaweed salad, baby scallop)
Uni & caviar in poke? :OOoooOO
Had to try this as per the cashier's recommendation ( since there's only a limited amount available a day ). The vegetables are very fresh, the rice is fluffy, and the seafood is tasty! I was ESPECIALLY surprised that the uni was delicious, since there are so many ways at other places where it can go wrong. The caviar (possibly just roe + squid ink) didn't leave a lasting impression but it's still tasty like generic fish roe. This is also the first time I tried golden beet; has a nice grassy taste to it.
b. Spicy Salmon - ~$11.95 (spicy Atlantic salmon, kimchi, corn, edamame, crab meat, carrot spiral, beet spiral, golden beet spiral, cucumber, cherry tomato, red onion slice, seaweed salad)
The brown rice was a little on the chewy side but overall was good. The crab meat is marinated in sesame oil. Yummy *o* Only thing is that even though the bowls are piled high with ingredients, the bowls in themselves are small, and would keep you full for a short amount of time in this cold Canadian weather. However I have yet to try their other non-poke options which seem more filling!
Sidenote: My friend and I were appreciative that the cherry tomatoes were cut in half and not served whole. Yush it makes a difference huehue.
3. Load up on extra furikake at the self serve station
- they have cool stuff like dried laver flakes, wasabi sesame seeds etc. There are 10+ different toppings to sprinkle to your heart's content
- complimentary water is good too
4. Comes with a red or green apple!!
