Frozen yogurt is like a welcome blast from my past, especially as summer hits its hottest. While I have fond memories of bubblegum and sprinkles, both things I no longer eat, I still crave the tantalizing treat as the perfect alternative to a calorific dessert, or lunch for that matter.
So what started my re-found love for this treat was...
Divine (Mississippi). A great venue with even better hours. They are open until 10 or 11 almost every night. Awesome. Divine is the one that turned me back onto fro-yo with a premium-level Dulce de Leche flavor, that is deliCIOUS. I love it. They also have fresh fruit that doesn't even appear that it was frozen and tastes just as good as it looks. Tres bueno!
Lucky Spoon is another nice spot if you happen to be downtown. The service is great and they have a wall of flavors to choose from.
ActiveCulture is a-okay. I was happy to find a coffee flavor here, but it wasn't the exciting display of toppings or self-serve, which although I don't want to watch everyone else taste-test flavors, I enjoy it thoroughly myself. I don't want anyone to ask me what flavor I want to try next. I want to try them all, you fool.
Avoid Swirl, as there's something about that place that reminds me of a nightmare. I can't quite put a finger on it, but there's something not quite right.
Yes, Yo-Cream makes them all but the atmosphere, service and cleanliness makes all the difference. Also, somehow people can mess up the batches. I've had the same chocolate at every place and it's managed to be slightly different at nearly every one.
