Ubatuba Açaí

Daniella shares Ubatuba Açaí bowls on Healthy Living.

Healthy Living with Londy Sagastume is a show that focuses on community health in the Valley. On this episode Londy talks with Daniella Demetrio of Ubatuba Açaí to share how she put her own twist on fruit bowls in her restaurant. Daniella explains that she is from Ubatuba Brazil where she imports the native fruit. She talks about the meaning of Ubatuba and how it relates to the way the palm fruit is traditionally transported from the palm tree. She says that the fruit is just as plentiful as native fruits (like oranges) are here in California. Daniella discusses the health benefits of açaí, while mentioning that children, and babies can eat it. She also talks about how her restaurant resells hot stuffed pastries from Nonna’s Empanadas.
