| - I really love places like these, despite their lack of "grittiness" and "authentic Cleveland appeal." I stepped into this oasis of smoothies, salads, rice bowls, and pitas yesterday while in the area and was very soothed, if that makes sense. I love smoothies, and I realize I haven't found a place in Cleve-o devoted exclusively, or at least partially, to making them.
Not to say that I want a Jamba Juice on every other corner or anything. But I like smoothies and don't always feel like making them myself at home. 'Cause I'm not really into keeping acai berries around the apartment.
This place was kind of a faux-hipster haven, though. People dressed up like they walked out of the movie 'Singles' although undoubtedly not as poor...using wi-fi like it was their job. Well, it definitely could have been related to their job. But whatever.
It was only after walking out of there and back on yelp that I read reviews of this place (albeit, not this location) and that many people think highly of Liquid Planet. I was surprised, because it's so shiny and has a west-coast vibe that I thought some people might be turned off by it. (I wasn't...but I did chuckle a little bit while inside.) People have a lot of good things to say about their food as well as their smoothies. If I lived in Cleveland Heights I would be stopping by at least once a week.
