Going Nuts

$12.00 · 5 Reviews

This cafe sells not only healthy fruit/acai smoothie bowls, but also juices with superfood as well as hearty grain bowls that you can fully self-customise.

We tried their super bowls $12 each (smoothie bowls):
1. Crimson Lush 3.75/5
-Base contains beetroot, raspberries and banana
-Topped with toasted granola, seed mix, toasted coconut shavings, cranberries, kiwi, banana (which i swapped for strawberries) & blueberries.
-I prefer this base over the acai as it was less sweet and more sour-ish😋

2. Acai Bowl 3/5
-Base contains acai, banana and mixed berries.
-Topped with toasted granola, seed mix, toasted coconut shavings, goji berries, blueberries, strawberries and banana
-This base was much sweeter.

Overall:
-We appreciated that the smoothie bowl bases were very smooth and finely blended but we would have preferred it to be more icy🤣. We loved how the crunchy nuts and granola gave the smoothie bowls a nice texture and dimension. We also loved that the fruits were tangy and hence its acidity really balanced out the sweetness of the smoothie bases.
-Glad that the portions were big and filling.
-I really love their innovations on the various unconventional bases such as fruity matcha, acai, going nuts (with peanut butter) etc ▪️Taste: 3.5/5
▪️Ambience: 3/5 (a little cramp for a cafe and it doesnt really have those instagramable ambience)
▪️Service: 4/5 (Friendly staff who patiently answered my inquiries about the sweetness of the smoothie bowls THANK YOU)
▪️Worth it: 3.25/5 Big portion but i would think twice before buying if i do not have the 1for1 burpplebeyond. Especially since i prefer tangy and icy smoothie bases but TGB's bases are a little too sweet for my tastebuds.
Overall 6.75/10

i ordered the TGB açai bowl and going nuts. my mum and i agreed that the acai bowl was better! it was pretty worth because we used Burpple Beyond 1-for-1, otherwise it would’ve been $12 for a bowl (which is p much expected because it’s acai)

Sprouting up among the handful of eateries at Irving Place is a juice shop blending up smoothies and fruit bowls. Going Nuts ($12) sees a peanut butter smoothie base topped with fresh fruit, seeds and granola - richer in mouthfeel and to me a more enticing option compared to the wave of açai bowls. The juices (from $4.50) are fresh although a tad too small; coffee is decent and brewed using Brother Basil & Co. beans from Melbourne. They took quite awhile to prepare all our orders even though there was no one ahead of us - teething problems, I hope.
