CONCEPT: Favi Lunches & Deli serves common American deli…read moreitems, but with a Brazilian twist. Rather than rice pudding, Favi prepares Açaí. Yuca fries instead of potato fries. And the most notable... in lieu of relatively simple cheese and bacon burgers, Favi serves a variety of tall hamburgers known as X Tudu. A popular street and restaurant item in Brazil, X Tudu, pronounced "Shees-TOO-Dew" is a play on the Portuguese pronunciation for the letter X (Shees) and can be translated as "cheese with everything". And so it is! A variety of permutations are offered on the menu, with the classic X Tudu composed of layers of beef patty, mozzarella cheese, corn kernels, lettuce, tomato, bacon, ham, and fried egg encased in a sesame seed bun smeared with mayonnaise. EXPERIENCE: The X Tudus were highly recommended by neighbors, and I started with the Classic X Tudu. The composition seemed to exemplify a literal definition of brunch, with traditional American breakfast (egg, ham, bacon, cheese) joined with traditional American lunch (lettuce, tomato, corn, beef) in every bite. As this was my first experience with X Tudu, I am unable to remark on how well or how traditionally Favi executed the dish. I can report that the beef patty was relatively thin, allowing ground beef to be one of many thin layers that combine into a unique, complex single bite. Yuca fries complemented the X Tudu, as well as a small container of garlic-intense avocado purée. A refrigerator case is stocked with a wide variety of Brazilian desserts, including Brigadiero (chocolate fudge balls covered with chocolate sprinkles), as well as unique sugar-based sodas. Shelves are lined with Brazilian candies. It is clear that sweets are popular in Brazil! TIPS: X Tudu is very filling, as intended, and great option to pick up for brunch on a weekend errand run. I am told by neighbors that they prefer the sirloin option at Favi's (X Tudu Picanha). Try the imported Brazilian sugar-based sodas that are flavored with rainforest fruit (Guarana). Parking is available on the right side of the entrance.

Walking into the restaurant, you get hit right away with all these delicious homemade pastries. You almost just want to skip right to dessert. Even though it was very busy, we were seated pretty quick. The vibe and decor was very cool. Even had a Led Zeppelin poster on the wall. The best dishes we tried were the Red Hot Mama burrito. The short ribs were easily the star, but loved the pairing with sweet potato and Gouda. Even has its own sauce. Also try the cheese waffle (their take on Brazilian cheese bread). So unique. The French toast wasn't the favorite. The crust of the brioche was a little over done, but the inside was good, especially with the strawberries. The waffles were very good. Light and fluffy. I do have to say that I wished they offered a soda option. It isn't a deal breaker, but it is something I like. Definitely recommend giving them a try!

Robeks is a smoothie and acai bowl chain, and this Danbury location operates at the level I would…read moreexpect from the brand when it is running well. I looked over a menu that covers a solid range of smoothies, fresh juices, acai bowls, and toast options, with enough variety that regular visitors can work through different combinations without the menu feeling repetitive. The acai bowls are the strongest part of what the kitchen does here. I tried the berry acai with almond butter, a combination that comes up consistently, and the almond butter addition in particular elevated the base in a way that made it worth specifying when I ordered. The tropical mango bowl and the strawnana berry bowl both have their followers among regulars, and I can see why. The smoothies cover a broad range of flavor profiles, and the 800 lb Gorilla is one of the more popular options on the menu. Health shots are available as an add on for anyone looking to supplement their order. Consistency is the variable I managed my expectations around. I noticed smoothies in particular can taste noticeably different between visits depending on who is making them and how closely the recipe is being followed, which is a limitation that affects the experience more than it should for a brand at this price point. Staff were generally friendly and willing to accommodate dietary needs and modifications, though accuracy on customizations has been hit or miss enough that it is worth confirming my order before I leave the counter, particularly if I have an allergy or intolerance. Portion sizes are a little small compared to the price, so going in with a sense of what I am paying for per ounce is useful context. For a quick and relatively healthy meal or snack in Danbury when I want something fresher than standard fast food options, Robeks fills that gap adequately.

She gave us samples of the different peanut butters. The "selfie" peanut butter absolutely amazing! It tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch and had very little sugar in it.

My fiancé got the Green smoothie bowl which to me tasted like grass, but she loved it, that's all that matters. So... a bit pricey. 2 smoothie bowls cost about $20.00. But happy we tried it.

And I've now made the switch from the Starbucks egg bites to Sobol's egg bites, they're lighter, taste more homemade, and have fewer calories than Starbucks. they keep adding really great new options! Oh, and the granola? Absolutely next level. Nothing compares. So lucky to have this spot right in town! #winning

We also loved the healthy feel of our bowls- it was clear that all ingredients were natural and fresh.

We received our food and drinks quickly. We ordered two iced strawberry matcha lattes. Unfortunately, they were pretty terrible and borderline undrinkable. I don't doubt that their coffee is good, but this was disappointing. The color was not great, it had no actual matcha flavor, and not nearly sweetened enough (even with the strawberry syrup). It pretty much tasted like chalky water with strawberry seeds. I ordered the turkey bacon, egg, Gouda cheese with spinach on a multigrain roll. I enjoyed it, and both the turkey and eggs were cooked well. I feel like there wasn't enough cheese, but maybe that's just me. However, the sandwich was kind of dry and I had to ask for ketchup so I could just have some moisture. My partner ordered the chipotle chicken sandwich. The chicken didn't have much flavor, but the sauce was good.
