I was craving for something fruity today. And when I saw this Fruitas booth in Market Market, I gave it a try. I posted about Fruit Magic last year and I thought it would be good to try to check out the competition.
The booth is so colorful and summery.
I asked if pure juices are available but they said no. They only do shakes and other fruit preparations like the Buco halo halo, but no juices. I still tried it anyhow. From among the fruits available, I decided to try their green mango juice. Must be my hormones, I was craving for something fruity but sour.
The shakes come in different sizes. P35 for the smallest glass, I'd say not bad.
It was fun to watch your fruit get peeled, sliced and osterized. Crushed ice is added halfway, plus sugarwater, then osterized some more.
I once tried... don't remember the name of the booth. I thought it would be a fresh juice but instead the saleslady took out a plastic bag out of the fridge and poured it in a glass. That was it... fresh juice! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI thought they were just about fruits. It seems like they also have buko. I'd love to try that.
ReplyDeleteSidney, im sure that wasnt Fruitas... what i enjoy about Fruitas, is that i get to pick the fruit myself off their shelf. and watch as they prepare the shake in front of me. but if it is juice you want, try Fruit Magic instead. good luck this time! ;-)
ReplyDeleteEm Dy, i just had my 3rd tall glass of green mango shake today. and while i was buying kanina, the girl beside me ordered buco shake with banana.. hmmmm, sounds good no. ill try the buco preparations too next time. ;-) lets!
I noticed this Fruitas stand in Market-Market last Sunday while buying vegies. Their yellow mango shake is my favorite. Suki ko yong Fruitas infront of Globe 5/F in Megamall. :)
ReplyDeleteluna m., ako newborn suki na din. green mango naman for me. may craving eh. must be hormones. ;-)
ReplyDeletegood thing there's a fruitas stand near my office :) i like their fresh buko juice.. as in they'll pour it sa glass straight from the shell mismo. yummm. sometimes i tell them not to put syrup sa shake ko para fresh talaga. hehe.
ReplyDeleteu8mypinkcookies, next time, talagang yang buco preparations na nila ang susubukan ko! sound really really good!
ReplyDeletedami nila branches sa market, market.. my fave naman is ripe mango shake..
ReplyDeleteill take Fuitas over fruit magic, anytime of the daym, any day of the week...
ReplyDeleteeinah, yup. market market din ako.. sa may grocery. after i load my grocery bags sa car, i make sure i go back in to order a medium glass of their shake... try ko nga ripe mango next time...
ReplyDeletesakai, come to think of it, i do now. same with you. i just realized na sa Fruitas, the fiber content is intact since the fruit is blenderized whole. while in Fruit magic, the fiber is left out. at least a big bulk of it. ;-)
i've always been partial to big chill. :)
ReplyDeletepepper_md, i hope i could get to try Big Chill one of these days... ;-)
ReplyDeleteuso na naman yung fruit shakes coz its summer. perfect way to beat the heat :D
ReplyDeleteu8mypinkcookies, not to mention na very very healthy pa diba! ;-) hay, nauhaw ako tuloy. haha...
ReplyDeletei love Fruitas!
ReplyDeletejeff, i used to like fruit magic most. but after trying fruitas, parang i like this more now. i get both the fiber and the juice kasi.
ReplyDeleteI love Fruitas! Try the Autumn Shake. Pero substitute Pineapple with Strawberry. Mas masarap!
ReplyDeletemochi08, thanks for the tip.. ill try the autumn shake like you said as soon as i get the chance!
