deep purpl

Deep Purpl (why am I suddenly hearing the opening strums of “Smoke on the Water”?) layers açaí sorbet with a plethora of customer-chosen ingredients into sedimentary masterpieces of fruit, fresh, and flavor.

pita fusion

The whole Pita Fusion concept is like a Mediterranean version of Chipotles with fast-casual service and interactive ingredient selection. And my neighbor was right: these dang things are dang good! The proteins are deeply savory and the veggies pop with color, flavor, and crispness with each bite.
