When my boys are in school, my husband and I try to go out to lunch together at least once a week. With both of us working from home and no regular babysitter we do date lunches instead of date nights. The Mister was a little jealous when I met a friend at the Ahipoki Bowl in Scottsdale recently, but I get to remedy that very, very soon thanks to the new Chandler Ahipoki Bowl location.
Starting on July 21st, East Valley residents can enjoy all of the same great build your own bowls as they can in Scottsdale, but none of that pesky traffic. The new location will be housed in the Chandler Pavilions Shopping Center. The initial concept was brought to Scottsdale in April of this year and has been received with huge success.
What goes into an Ahipoki Bowl?
Base| white rice, brown rice, organic salad or half salad and half rice of your choice
Side| avocado, crab meat and onion

“Ahipoki is the fastest growing poke concept in the nation with four locations in CA and now two in Arizona with several more planned within the next 12 months”, explained Jason Jantzen, Managing Partner of Ahipoki Bowl Arizona. “We are thrilled to bring the concept to the Chandler area.”
Currently there are four Ahipoki Bowl locations in California including Hollywood, Los Angeles, Temple City and Moreno Valley with two more locations in Arizona in Scottsdale and now Chandler.
If you’ve never tried poke in any form, you’re in for a treat. Give this unique spot a try, make your own sensational bowl and I’m confident that you will be back again and again.
