Hey, does anyone blog here anymore???? Come on, I know you guys have been going to restaurants!!
Ahem, okay, so I found myself in the unfortunate predicament of being 2 hours early to meet someone in the Valley today. It was not a super hot day, but it felt super hot in Northridge. I tried to contain myself in a mall, but that drove me crazy, so I had to drive around with the AC on - this was not enough to cool the car down. Finally, I saw a Pinkberry and decided that this would be the solution: I would try Pinkberry for the first time and finally know what it was like so I could form my own opinion. And it would hopefully cool me down.
I made the right choice. The place and the frozen yogurt I got cooled me down and hit the spot. I got a medium original with one topping: strawberry. In retrospect, I should have chosen a more exotic fruit such as lychee or mango. But the frozen yogurt was good, it wasn't fatty, it wasn't artificial, and it wasn't sweet. It was tangy but not too much so. It tasted fresh. The strawberries were equally tangy and zingy and not sweetened. The whole place was cool with air conditioning down to 76 degrees and the cold dessert helped remove the Valley heat from my body.
I liked the experience. I didn't want to like it because it was such a fad, but I guess there is a place for fads like this one.
Oh, and the experience costed just under $5.

I too am a big pinkberry fan. The owners say this is the flavor of Frozen Yogurt in Korea. For me the flavor harkens back to the frozen yogurt flavor of my youth in granola, tree-hugging Oregon. I remember the yogurt pace I went to as a kid in Eugene. The owners wore sleeveless sundresses and didn't shave under their arms. Hmmm. That's a memory gone too far. But the Yogurt was just like pinkberry.
Glad you like it too! I'm going to have to bring Johan to one. It really does taste like genuine yogurt, and not ice cream. So that's a good thing!
Nice description including the underarm hair - thanks!
