"Aunty Maile's in Torrance is our first stop when we're craving mix plates loaded with furikake shrimp and chicken katsu, but their small selection of poke is fantastic, too. As with everything on the menu, there's an emphasis on traditional ingredients. Our favorite is the Hawaiian-style ahi seasoned with ogo seaweed, ground kukui nut, and red sea salt, but you can't go wrong with any of the other ahi poke flavors, including one boosted with avocado and spicy mayo. Bowls come with rice and mac salad, but we prefer going the purist route and ordering just poke." - sylvio martins, brant cox, cathy park
