The Fruit Hut - Online Fruits Delivery

Most of you definitely have seen those very premium Japanese melons that are sold in Isetan or Meidi-ya and they cost probably more than $100.  I chanced upon this fruits delivery website "The Fruit Hut" as recommended by "Best In Singapore - 10 Best Fruits Delivery in Singapore".  They have a wide variety of fruits, including a number of premium fruits as well.  We saw this nice looking melon on the website and decided to order it for the family to try.  The pricing is also more affordable than those sold in the Japanese supermarket and it looks presentable too!

This melon which is Japan-Breed, by "Melts by Superfish Growers" is locally grown in the heart of Brunei Darussalam.  Happy that the melon didn't fail us.  It was very sweet and it deserved a praise from everyone in the family.  Best of all, it doesn't cost more than $50.  I got it during their special deal at $29.

 

For less than $50, not only I got this premium melon, I got a XXXL avocado, a few mangoes and a bunch of bananas too!  My fruits delivery arrived in a nice packaging instead of everything packed inside a closed carton.

I ordered 3 pieces of Thai Golden Honey Mango and had them sliced.  I was lamenting to my hubby that we didn't have sticky rice to go with the mango.  The flesh was sweet and firm with a buttery smooth texture.

For the avocado and banana, you can choose your preferred ripeness of the fruits.  For instance, I had chosen "Somewhat Ripe (yellow with hints of green)" for the "Philippines Creamy Dole Banana" as I was not going to consume them immediately.  I made banana milkshake and it was really yummy!  I also made avocado chocolate milkshake with my Australia XXXL Avocado as well!  In term of ripeness, I had chosen this option - "Ripens in 4-5 days (somewhat firm, mostly green) as I intended to consume the avocado last.

With the convenience of this fruit delivery channel, why not give this a try and improve your health with good source of vitamins?  The website is very user-friendly and with 8 storage units and order packing stations strategically located across the island, your orders will be allocated to the nearest station to ensure seamless delivery within 2 hours. 

The above photo was taken 2 days after the fruits had been delivered and all were consumed by the third day.

Interestingly, "The Fruit Hut" is the only fruits store in Singapore to have a cold room, a large refrigeration chamber that stores our fruits between 3-7 degrees, keeping them at maximum freshness. You may also visit their store to personally select your fruits today!

The Acai Lab - Online Acai Bowl Delivery

 I have not tried acai bowl before as it is not available around my neighbourhood or workplace and they are not quite available in the malls that I normally frequent.  During this Covid period, it opens up doors for us to try the various online delivery services as most of the time, other than work, we are usually at home.  After reading the recommendation from Best In Singapore on "Best 7 Acai Bowl Delivery in Singapore", I decided to place an order with "The Acai Lab" and to give it a try!  Yes!  This was our maiden attempt to try acai bowl.  

I ordered three different acai bowls as I always like to try out food of different varieties or same type of food but of different flavours (if any).  These were my order:  

1)  Signature Acai Bowl, 2)  Tropical Acai and 3)  Berry Berries.

This was how the acai bowls looked like when they arrived at our door.  They were delivered chilled and the acai puree was still mostly frozen.  

Tip:  I do recommend you to freeze the acai bowl for around 20-30 mins before consuming it.  By then, it would really be icy cold (like frozen ice-cream) and it will help to enhances the taste.  I tried it with one of my acai bowls and I do feel that it tasted better.

What exactly is acai?  Why can't I find fresh acai berries in the supermarket?  I did a little bit of research online and this was what I found out:

Acai berries are 1-inch (2.5-cm) round fruits that grow on acai palm trees in the rainforests of Central and South America. They have a dark purple skin and yellow flesh surrounding a large seed.


Fresh acai berries have a short shelf life and aren't available outside of where they are grown. As an export, they are sold as a frozen purée, dried powder or pressed juice. - Healthline.com

PurpleBlend

The acai puree aka the PurpleBlend which "The Acai Lab" calls it, is actually a base comprises of mostly fresh açaí berry puree complemented with several other purple superfoods such as blueberries, strawberries, elderberries, cranberries and figs blended with banana and milk base.

Signature Acai Bowl

I would definitely recommend this if you are new to Acai bowl as it contains a good mix of nuts, superfood and fruits.  At "The Acai Lab", their signature acai bowl is topped with granola, banana strawberry, blueberry, kiwi, raisin, pumpkin seed, coconut flake, cranberry and chia seed.  This was my favourite acai bowl amongst the three different bowls as you will find a combination of taste (both sweet and sour) as well as smooth and crunchy texture.  Moreover, I froze this bowl for 30 mins before consuming it.  It tasted really shiok!   

Berry Berries

I had this acai bowl immediately when it was delivered.  I love berries so I chose this specialty bowl that contains blueberries and strawberries.  It had a special acai mango base and also topped with granola, raisins and almonds.

Tropical Bowl

Hubby preferred more fruits for his acai bowl so I ordered the tropical bowl for him.  It contained a variety of food that is in season - pineapple, banana, mango.  In addition, there were also raisin, coconut flakes, walnut, cranberries and chia seed.
