(Acai Bowl)
After yumming the combination of fresh strawberry slices, fresh banana slices, shredded coconut, and granola, I saw:

(Acai!)
That is the ice cold Acai (ah-sigh-EE). It's from a berry known as a superfood with a lot of health perks. Although my job is to share my dining experience as foodies do, I'm the wrong person to consult about its nutritional value. Perhaps a doctor from the Mayo Clinic may help through this article.
It helps to take a spoon, grab a piece of the topping together with a spoonful of Acai. It's a pleasure enjoy the combination effect: to let that sweet purple stuff roll about my mouth while chewing its sweet and succulent fresh fruit goodness plus some moisture added to the dry coconut and granola that led to a chewy effect. I felt all that rich texture and chilly effect in my mouth.
Quite a mistake for me to eat most of the topping without pairing them with the Acai. But somehow I was able to catch up while I still had some remaining toppings swimming in the Acai. Strawberries with Acai, bananas with Acai, coconut with Acai, granola with Acai. Oh... so... good!
I believe the Acai Bowl is best eaten on a hot day. Silly of me to choose winter morning to eat it. But then, it's still fine since it's been a snowless winter. And, I'll never know till I try.
By the way, since this is breakfast food, it's available from 5 AM to 11:30 AM. Click THIS for trading hours, and click THAT for the menu.
Acai Bowl:
When you need a thrill, as soon as you will, of sweet yummy chill.
