The Acai Spot
Who
doesn’t want to refuel with a little colourful, healthy
Brazilian vitality in all this January grey. The Acai Spot at the Hegyvidék shopping centre provides the perfect opportunity to
sample delicious acai bowls conceived in the Amazon rainforest,
turbo-charged with a myriad of healthy extra ingredients, from fruit
to peanut butter to granola. The perfect energy bomb and immune
booster during the dark winter, it is also an ideal dish for
breakfast or a snack, individually put together on-site, not from
powder, but from fresh berries and sorbets, making it even healthier.
And if you want a nutritious, active and colourful lunch, also have a
look at their delicious weekly menu of a soup, salad and juice. (x)
