I have worked at the Northwest Arkansas Mall for 6 years. I have eaten in the mall more times than I care to count. I am always amazed when people from offices go the food court to eat lunch so “everyone can have a choice.” So let me share with you office workers, shoppers and people who like great customer service — next time you are in the mall head straight to Frullati for a freshly made salad and tons of smoothie choices. Add to that a great attitude from Todd and your mall eating experience will make you forget you actually liked something in the window at Hot Topic.

Where: Frullati - Northwest Arkansas Mall

Who: Todd

Why: The Caesar salad. Caesar salad is my number one favorite food. No joke — we are talking Death Row meal here. So it’s surprising that the one at Frullati is one of the best in town. The lettuce (romaine even — not iceberg!) is fresh, the dressing is perfect and the salad is hand tossed. Add freshly diced chicken and you are golden. This may sound simple but, I have had MANY terrible Caesar salads at far swankier establishments that were garbage. I would also like to add that all employees at Frullati have to make a million smoothies all day long, including the obnoxiously named Peanut Butter Banana Butterfinger Smoothie, and they are fast and pleasant. I may branch out into the sandwiches one day but for a now I am sticking with the best Caesar salad in town courtesy of Todd.
