HERE'S A SCOOP
The creators of the restaurant Earth Plant Based Cuisine opened their second plant-based business in Downtown Phoenix; say hello to Goji Berry Café.
“We have gluten-free options, something that’s light and [we’re also] doing mocktails; so that’s another thing that I think people are looking forward to,” said Keyla Aguilar, co-owner of Goji Berry Café. “[For the mocktails] we’re using alternatives for alcohol, and they’re made with distilled botanicals which are actually good for you and the drinks are really, really good.”
