The world’s first energy exchange cafe is open – pay your way with steps
Until 30 August, Concrete Jungle cafe in Chippendale, Sydney will be turned into a world first. It’s launching the ‘Energy Exchange Cafe’, where you’ll be able to pay for your grub with the steps you’ve accumulated on your Fitbit. From today until Thursday, you’ll be able to purchase food simply by showing your accumulated step count from the previous day on your smartphone or step trackers, or if you sign an ‘energy pledge’ for the steps you intend on doing (from gardening to picking up the kids). Then, you eat! Here’s how much effort a small meal will set you back… These menu items cost between 3,000 – 10,000 steps and come with a free coffee: Savoury Turmeric Porridge with Poached Egg & Kale Blue Algae Smoothie Bowl Mixed Berry Hotcake Fruity Oat Bircher Oat Energy Balls Oaty Banana Bread Avocado on Oat Toast Creamy Porridge with Mixed Berries Find it at Concrete Jungle, 58 Kensington Street, Chippendale between 8am and 2.30pm.
