Found authentic Hawaiian Poke Bowl by Unco Chad's food truck

Unco Chad used to live in Hawaii but now he's in Michigan and not only does he shares a ton of his personal recipes, he now runs his own food truck selling his proper Hawaiian Poke Bowl!

The portions are huge for the price and it tastes really good. The poke is fresh and very different from any of the poke I've had here. Hawaiian Poke is indeed different and better!

Also tried the Kalua pork plate, that was absolutely delicious. It has this smoky flavour and it's so tender. Will definitely get this again

Really happy to get a taste of Hawaii here in Michigan, unco chad brings his food truck around the canton and Ann Arbor area so make sure you follow him on IG and facebook to find his next locations

📍 Unco Chad's Taste of Hawaii food truck, Michigan

5/22 Edited to

Having tried Unco Chad's Hawaiian Poke Bowl myself, I can attest that it stands out from typical mainland poke offerings. The fresh ahi tuna is marinated perfectly with green and sweet onions, delivering a clean and vibrant taste of Hawaii's signature dish. What really impressed me was the generous serving size, which offers excellent value without compromising on quality. The Kalua pork plate is another must-try. Slow-cooked to perfection, it has a rich smoky flavor that’s both savory and tender—something you rarely find outside of Hawaii. The inclusion of traditional sides like two scoops of rice, mac salad, and kimchee really rounds out the meal, giving you a complete Hawaiian plate lunch experience. One detail I appreciated was the accessibility of the food truck around the Canton and Ann Arbor areas, allowing locals to enjoy authentic island flavors without traveling far. The menu also offers variations like Kalbi chicken and poke nachos, giving you options if you want to explore more Hawaiian-inspired dishes. For those looking to add a genuine Hawaiian touch to their dining experience, following Unco Chad’s social media channels is highly recommended for updates on his locations. Overall, this food truck is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh, authentic Hawaiian food in Michigan, bridging the distance from the islands with genuine homemade recipes and friendly service.
