The Summer Açaí (Upper Thomson)

If indulgent açai bowls are your thing, don’t sleep on The Summer Acai’s lovely selection that is complete with fun punny names. Recommended by my colleague, the Gossip Gearl ($16.70/ Large) is part of the ‘Timeless Dreams” menu which features a mix of sorbets. Combining the classic berry açai sorbet with earthy floral earl grey acai sorbet, the bowl was insanely rich (please just look at the amount of cookie butter sauce). The acai is a little sweet but the taste of berries as well as the tea fragrance is superbly intense. The best part is that the sauce level is customisable and the generous amount I got (which is their normal portion) comes at no additional cost! It also includes a good number of toppings like banana, strawberries, blueberries, pitaya, chia seeds, and granola.

This medium sized acai bowl could feed 2 people comfortably and prices range from $9.50 - $12.50. The particular bowl was the Yuzu themed one that cost $10.50. The sorbet, acai and ingredients were filled to the brim! Highly recommended if you are around the area! No alfresco or dine in (though they have a very small sitting room for 2 people outside the shop) and there are 2 high tables for you to stand and eat.
