SoBol. Get it? Because this place sells acai bowls… so…bowl, but bol? Alright, glad we’re all on the same page.
So this little acai shop in Cos Cob, CT (yes, that is a real place, albeit being v random) opened up not too long ago. It actually used to be a Robek’s that my sister and I frequented wayyyyy too much as preteens, but that’s beside the point. Now it’s an acai shop that sells acai bowls, smoothies, juices, kombucha, etc. Basically, it’s a little slice of Los Angeles in the boring depths of Connecticut.
So I got the “green bowl”, which wasn’t on the main menu, but basically was an acai bowl with a buncha greens and ginger and bananas instead of acai. I also added some sliced kiwi on top for some pizazz. I really liked my bowl. Not as good as Sunlife, but actually pretty good for CT if you’re craving acai bowls! My friend Rebecca got the regular acai bowl and also really liked it!
Bella, on the other hand, got the pitaya bowl without bananas and literally said it tasted like sushi. Then she was so scared from the experience, she made us drive to Juice Press so she could get a blue Majik smoothie to wash the sushi taste out of her mouth. Dramatic af. She said the toppings were excellent tho!
So there you have it. Good bowls (or ~bols~) as long as you don’t omit the bananas!
