I couldn't believe the real chunks of chicken - not those processed fake strips!! Absolutely delicious!! But, my new morning favorite is the avacado toast!! I was actually shocked. When I opened it up I actually gasped - I have never seen an item actually look better than the pic on the menu!!! The tomatoes are top tier- they must come from a farm. They have so much flavor, combined with the fresh avocado & seasoning!! Even the bread is fresh and delicious!! I am telling you, you're missing out if you don't try it!! And while your there grab a bowl for dinner, you won't regret it!

Prep Hero Café opened in the former Neapoli Café & Pizzeria space in Malden, which I've stopped by…read morea couple of times for Italian food takeout. This casual café offers all day breakfast fare, rice & pasta bowls, 10" pizzas, coffee/espresso drinks, smoothies, and cold drinks & grab & go meals from the cooler. The place is order at the counter or online and there are a few tables to sit at. I stopped by Prep Hero for takeout very recently. I got the Firecracker Shrimp Pasta ($17.99 plus tax), which was all set to go in about 12 minutes. This pasta dish had 6 tender shrimp with tails, cheesy bread slices over al dente penne with a mild tomato cream sauce, garnished with parsley. It was a pretty good pasta dish. I would probably come back so I can try other things like the savory steak bowl and sweet chili drizzle salmon.

With the Santana's Breakfast, I was served two large pancakes! One would have been more than enough! Besides the American toast offerings, there are many Brazilian breads and pastries to accompany whatever you're having. Other than breakfast, I have enjoyed the pão de queijo, the sandwiches, a burger and most often, the coconut breads! It's hard to leave Santana's without a treat of some kind to have later....The bakery products are gorgeous! Also, the staff are very sweet, attentive, patient and hard-working. There are long lines sometimes and as another reviewer suggested, they should have a pick-up line for people who have ordered ahead. That said, the women really move fast and the lines do, too! Delicious coffee, too!

Whether it's a smoothie, sandwich, crepe, or my personal favorite, açaí bowl, there is something for everyone here. The owner is always there and it's obvious how much she cares about her business.

The interior is a little barren but there is good seating and table space along one side. The counter is all the way in the back. The menu said toppings were unlimited but when I tried to confirm with the girl behind the counter, she told me it was 3 toppings into the bowl and 3 toppings on top, which was a bit confusing. Taste-wise, I thought it was great. The acai is on the sweeter side compared to other places I've tried, which is fine for me, but may not be for everyone. The smallest size came in at a total of $13.81, which is a bit more expensive than I would've liked but not bad every once in a while. Some places don't let you build your own so I appreciated that this place gave set options as well as allowing you to customize your own bowl. They seem to have a rewards program as well. Generally a good experience and tasty bowl so I'll be back in the future.
