| - Do you ever put off going to a new spot in town because you know as soon as you do the instant addiction will hit and you'll be forever thinking about Poke bowls? No? Just me? Ok.
Well, that was my predicament and I held out as long as I could and then finally in late June gave in and made my first trip to Ahipoke Bowl and they are everything I imagined them to be. I've now been 5 times in the past 2 weeks. Addiction is real.
You walk in and are greeted by the Chipotle-style menu board and line, your eyes widen as you realize all the choices and topping and awesomeness that awaits you. Go for the regular bowl to kick things off, but you'll quickly graduate to the large bowl for only $2 more. The difference is 2 scoops of seafood or 3 - choices like salmon, tuna, spicy tuna and scallops. I've now perfected my order of 1/3 brown rice 2/3 salad in the large bowl, with house spicy sauce on my 2 scoops of salmon and 1 scoop of spicy tuna. Then I just go all in on the toppings - things like edamame, jicama, seaweed salad, sesame seeds, wasabi, ginger, fish eggs, krab salad and you can also add avocado for $1 more. Tried the green tea last time and wasn't too impressed, I'll just stick to water and make the bowl my main focus as it should be.
Its all delicious and I want it everyday now - breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, late-night. I'm starting a support group, see you guys there at 11am daily for lunch. And then again for dinner. As far as addictions go, this isn't a bad one to have, right? See you there :)
