Ever since I tried the power bowl at Playa Bowls in Boston, I’ve been craving it, so I finally tried it here! I was not disappointed, the bowl was super delicious and very refreshing. Coming straight from a stressful exam made the experience even better 😋😋the location is also really spacious and well decorated! My friend also really enjoyed the Nutella bowl - Liya Bartsch
