For those of you unfamiliar with Acai, it is a fruit somewhat like a blueberry but apparently with infinitely more antioxidants and other healthy stuff so it has recently become a bit of a health crazy. Places out in San Diego serve "Acai Bowls" - basically blended up Acai fruit topped with other fruit, granola and the like.
I had the good fortunate of sampling the Acai Bowl at Zanzibar a couple of Saturdays ago after my long run. It was amazing. I don't know what kind of granola Zanzibar uses, but it was the best I've ever had. Hopefully the Acai Bowls there are good for you because they taste outstanding!
For what Wikipedia has to say about Acai (pronounced asaˈi/) fruit, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Açaí_Palm
If you read on down the page, you'll find (shockingly) Acai is actually filled with calories and fat. Dang it, now wonder it tasted so good...
