Avocados are a nutrient-rich stone fruit that has plenty of health benefits. This includes essential vitamins and minerals such as magnesium, potassium and omega-3 fatty acids. Besides purchasing avocados from your local supermarkets or certain fruit stalls, there are a few other places you can enjoy your avocado in various forms regardless of food or beverage. Here are 9 Places To Get Your Avocado Fix in Klang Valley in alphabetical order.
