| - There's been so much hype about poke and sushi burritos these days that I decided to try it out today. I've always been hesitant to try either because it always looked like a salad or just an uncut maki roll.
However, I decided to try this place which is close to my work and I ordered a veggie bowl, which came with some nori, tofu, black/purple rice, edamane, sesame seeds and some other veggies and teriyaki sauce. The price was $11.95 + tax.
What I liked about it was that the warm purple rice mixed with the cold veggies and nori was a contrast in texture and also hot/cold which felt very good in my mouth (that's what she said lol). I really did like the taste. In addition, the service was very fast and it took less than 3 minutes to fill my order.
However, as I suspected, for the portion I received, it was quite small. For almost $12, I expect a heaping portion or fill me up, but I would need at least two of them to fill me up.
Verdict: Would I come back? Sure once in a while, maybe once a month or so, but definitely not something I would have on the regular. If it was less than $10, then yes, but the extra $2 makes a huge difference.
