Acai (pronounced as ah-sah-ee) is a superfood, hailing from the Amazon rainforests of Brazil. They're commonly served in a smoothie bowl as seen on many Instagram accounts in Singapore and around the world. Loaded with antioxidants and Omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids (making it popular among vegetarians), restaurants and cafes are now serving up acai bowls and smoothies, making it easier to get our acai fix. Here's a list of places that does wicked acai bowls, if you're thinking of going on a health cleanse.

Absolute Acai

Absolute Acai, as the name suggests, offers acai bowls and smoothies. Located at the bustling Pickering Street, this café uses their signature acai base blend which consists of acai, guarana, coconut water, bananas and apples (basically the good stuff) for their smoothies and bowls. You can choose from their fixed menu or you could opt for the D.I.Y bowls where you can choose your own toppings such as kiwi and strawberries. #01-38 Nankin Row, 3 Pickering St.

This farm-to-table eatery at Keong Saik Road offers more than just wholesome food in an industrial-chic space.

Super Loco

Super Loco at Robertson Quay is serious when it comes to brunch, whipping up tantalizing Mexican cuisine such as breakfast burrito, D.I.Y tacos and quesadillas.
