Need to cool down? In this heat, it’s safe to say we all do. Acai bowls in Riyadh usually tend to do the trick for us. The Brazilian treat is made of frozen and mashed fruit of the açaí palm. The bowls tend to have an earthy or creamy taste and are the perfect way to chill out. Ready to take a bite? Here are the top acai bowls in Riyadh.
