“We import authentic Acai from Brazil…”
Tropicool Café aims to leave a mark on taste buds with the exotic flavours of Brazil. As co-founder Randall Fernandes asserts, “We import authentic Açaí that is found exclusively in the Amazon Forest, making us the sole café in Mumbai, actually India, to serve the purest form of acai with 50% pulp. We have incorporated items that are inspired by Brazilian street food and are ideal for the on-the-go folks. Also, you can pair your salads and wraps with our in-house Acai Balsamic Dressing, which has garnered quite a following!”
Here, the Acai bowls start from ₹450 but if you’re looking for something more, order the Pao De Queijo (Brazilian cheese bread at ₹540 for 5 pieces) or a tapioca wrap – you can thank us later! Tropicool’s menu also has a range of refreshing smoothies, egg variations for a hearty breakfast and overnight-soaked bowls, that appeal to even the finickiest eaters. And let’s not forget Tropicool’s distinctive coffee, brewed with authentic Brazilian beans – a must-try for coffee lovers!
