The Morning Pick-Me-Up: Acai Bowls at Fusion Juice Bar The coffee-and-bagel-to-go morning routine is almost as second nature to a New Yorker as swiping through subway turnstiles on the first try. And while we love a good everything bagel with a little schmear — and maybe some lox — it can in no way be considered part of any “healthy” New Year’s resolution. Which is why we’re currently obsessed with Fusion Juice Bar’s two locations on 31st Avenue and 36th Avenue. Stopping in for a quick cold press on the way to work in the morning is just as simple as grabbing a cup of joe on the way to the subway, and their acai bowls are a wonderful JANUARY 2 0 1 7 52 FOOD+DRINKS way to start a busy weekend morning. Their almond butter acai bowl, pictured here, is a protein-packed power punch that’ll recharge you after a morning on the elliptical.

Pat yourself on the back and have yourself a drink. Now put it down and pick up a dumbbell — January means it’s time to take those healthy resolutions seriously! We here at BORO know it’s no easy task to eat healthy in the big city, especially since some seriously unhealthy foods like bagels and burgers are part of our weekly diets. And don’t forget brunch — we’d practically have no social life without it! That’s why we’ve pulled together a few restaurants in Astoria, LIC and Sunnyside that offer healthy (or healthier) options to some of our favorite dishes. Read on for some tasty local spots with healthy alternatives to New York City staples.
