Acai bowls are filled with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein and healthy fats. Hence they are believed to be superfoods and the latest healthy food fad. Because acai berries spoil within a day, they are usually sold as a frozen pulp and when topped with various cut fruits and granola, make a healthy snack or even a meal.
Crazy Over Acai was opened by two health freaks who were literally crazy over acai. There are a ton of places in Dubai serving acai bowls and this is the latest addition to the “acai” scene. They are located within Kulfi House in Burdubai and will be opening more branches in Dubai soon. This location is quite pretty with an eye-catching ceiling and bright yellow walls. They cater to dine-in but their main focus is on delivery.
At Crazy Over Acai, you can choose the pre-defined acai bowl or ‘make your own’. You can choose the serving size too. The menu has some interesting names like Anaconda, Ronaldino, Samba etc.
With summer fast approaching, these acai bowls are definitely going to be a hit…. Who can resist some cold, yummy and healthy acai loaded with fruits and granola in this sweltering heat??!!
On my visit last week during lunch time, I got to try a few of their bestsellers alongwith my friends – Amazonian, Jungle, Samba, Emirati and Ronaldino. Most of these had fruits like strawberries, kiwi, mangoes and bananas. My favourite was the Emirati as it had dates and was quite different in taste, not that the others were bad, just that I love dates a lot. It could have been seedless though. The one with mango was good too.
We also tried another acai bowl topped with grated coconut, peanut butterzoma and Nutella. This one’s for all chocolate lovers and the blend of Nutella, peanut butter and acai was yummy.
