Soft Spot, the recently opened acai cafe in Thonglor, has turned into a hotspot barely within a week of its launch. No other fruits or sugar has been added, meaning the texture is super light and refreshing. There are three base options: 100% pure acai, tropical, and cacao acai which lean towards chocolate-y notes. The medium size goes for B199 while the large is priced at B279.
