The problem was the texture. It was grainy not smooth. The worker did not correctly fill the cone evenly so it was tippy initially. Do not recommend this flavor.

Yay! So happy to find an acai bowl place within the Mall of America!…read more Acai is labeled as a superfood due to its high levels of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Such a tasty treat! My go to is the Nauti Bowl, which combines Açaí, Pitaya, freshly ground peanut butter that's made in-house, and bananas, crunchy granola and cacao nibs... super yummy! Love, love, love!

Super cute place for some yummy boba tea!…read more The man working the counter was so sweet, attentive and helpful. He took the time to recommend and help us pick the right tea. The tea itself was good but a bit too sweet for my liking. Luckily there are many many options and I will be coming back to try other ones

Do not recommend this place. Customer service was disappointing…read more When ordering, I specifically asked for a kid-friendly drink recommendation and was given a strawberry fruit tea with popping boba. It ended up tasting extremely bitter--more like strong black tea than anything strawberry. Paying $7 for a drink my kids wouldn't even touch felt like a waste. I went back to ask if they could make it sweeter or offer a different drink. I wasn't asking for a refund, just a chance to have a better experience. They added sweetener but it still tasted very bitter and said their policy doesn't allow to change drinks. To make things worse, staff were speaking to each other in another language right in front of me instead of communicating directly (when they both can speak perfect english), which felt unprofessional. Overall, disappointing experience and not very accommodating to customers.

This is such a hidden gem in a great location. It's a small shop that doesn't have a huge menu but…read moreeverything is delicious. They have a wide variety of drinks and toppings and what makes them special is they offer fresh pressed sugarcane and if you have never had sugarcane I highly recommend, it is a refreshing sweet treat. You will feel like you are on the streets of Asia. They only have cold cut and shredded chicken options for banh mi or you could get the special which has cold cut and shredded chicken which is what I got. There was not a lot of shredded chicken in it but it was a really good banh mi. The flavors were there and the bread was crispy. No complaints. They offered milk substitutes for my friend who is lactose intolerant. Prices are pretty decent here. Banh mi is around $8 which is pretty standard but it's a really good banh mi. Drinks are also around $7-$8 depending on what you get. We went right after tet and we saw they had these cute reusable cups there, they said the promo was over but they gave us these cups for free since we bought enough. There is not much seating here, most people seemed to just pick up to go but our group likes to sit here and talk and it's a nice ambiance for it. I'm hoping if they get more popular they can expand their seating more but it's not necessary. If you are looking for a good banh mi and good boba come here!

The peanut butter is freshly ground, the fruit is ripe and fresh, and the bases are so delicious! The bases are dense so it's pretty filling. I loved the generous portion of peanut butter in the Nauti Bowl, and the acai base was not tart. I liked the Sunrise Bowl even better -- the blue majik base was flavorful and so refreshing! It's very clean inside and there are tables to sit at. There is plenty of parking available in the lot outside.

Last Friday, I dropped by Caribou Coffee to get a beverage. For the first time, I experienced a…read morelineup at the drive-thru. It allowed me to take a look at the other businesses in this plaza as I waited. Two doors down from it is North Country Nutrition (NCN). I wondered whether it was similar to Zeev's Nutrition Studio that I typically go to in Toronto. Sure enough, I did some research online while killing time at the drive-thru, and it had healthy shakes and drinks. Cool! On Saturday morning, I decided to check out NCN. I found a parking spot steps away from the store and backed into it. I was the only customer at the store at around 10 am. The woman, who later introduced herself as Liz, was so friendly and warm. I loved the cozy vibes that this place had, from the couch with cute pillows and other Christmas decorations, to the northern vibes that you feel with canoe paddles and loons. We both ended up sharing where we are from. She's originally from Alexandria, which is roughly a 2.5-hour drive north of the Twin Cities. I indicated that I knew where it was when I used to drive between Rochester and Winnipeg. I cut through it. She loved that I knew where she grew up. The coziness comes from living by water, which shows. She was great explaining her shakes and teas. I am a tea person. I saw watermelon Jolly Rancher as a cold tea. I knew that I wanted it. So, she made me one. It was in a mega format that I'm used to. It was just over $5, which is reasonable. I paid with a credit card. It was easy. I tapped and was done. I thanked her for my drink and headed to my car. I sipped my watermelon Jolly Rancher tea throughout the day. It does taste like the candy, minus the sugar. The flavours were yummy. I was a happy camper. I am glad that I discovered NCN. It takes five minutes to drive over here from the hotel, which I love. The parking lot is small, but I managed to find a spot just fine. I wish that I had found it sooner on this trip. I'll need to return and try more drinks. This place closes at 4 pm most days. It's also closed on Sundays. (440)

I put to have my order ready at 9am and when I walked in at 8:55am I was greeted by two ladies. I explained I had placed an order for pickup and the woman behind the counter grabbed it from a small fridge. Both of these ladies were so friendly and made me feel welcomed from the jump. Both my shake and tea were so good -- the tea especially though..YUMM!! I was given a punch card while paying, which was nice because I'll definitely be back soon!!

And the boba pearls are perfectly soft and chewy. It seems Tbaar just has a little To-Go counter within the Kyuramen Restaurant, so ambiance is limited to a nice counter and a few chairs to sit while you wait. They even have 2 kiosks where you can order electronically in case the line is long. Service was quick, helpful and friendly!
