"The food at this tropical oasis in the CBD is fresh, bright, and full of the kind of feel-good ingredients that can be a great antidote to summer heat. It has a whole section of the menu for raw and cold starters, including ceviche, tiradito, sashimi, and poke. They even have vegan variations, like vegan ceviche with mushrooms, beans, cucumber, aji limo, red onion, choclo, sweet potato, avocado, and cancha." - Beth D'Addono

"The food at this tropical oasis in the CBD is fresh, tasty, vegan-friendly, and full of the kind of nutrients that can be a game changer after a big night out. Its menu includes plenty of plant-based food (like vegan ceviche with mushrooms, beans, cucumber, aji limo, red onion, choclo, sweet potato, avocado and cancha) but the cafe will satisfy anyone in a party of meat eaters too with items like Brazilian chicken salad." - Beth D'Addono, Clair Lorell
