I'd say I like the mainlander's idea of a poke bowl better than ours. You guys have more varied toppings. Typically we don't have a choice - it's just poke on hot rice. The mainlanders think of it more as a salad. That's a good idea. I'm a little surprised that people in Chicago would want to try masago, pickled ginger, seaweed salad, or raw fish. Jalapenos and poke sounds great!
Poke has exploded in this state in the past decade, people buy it at supermarkets to eat it at home and they go out and buy poke bowls for lunch and dinner. Hawaii has always liked sashimi but I wonder if we're eating too much raw fish.
