dear pinkberry,

We're through. I do like your yogurt and your convenience. I was initially skeptical about your tart treat, but came to love it. Just as I've enjoyed the similar products at Snowberry, Red Mango, and the random boba shop.

I only recently learned about Menchie's, a frozen yogurt place in Valley Village. Not only do they have a variety of flavors besides plain/tart, but it is self-serve. Apparently, the flavors rotate, so I'll be curious to return and try other things. There are also A LOT of toppings.

I got a small, which was a pretty decent size cup and filled it with both banana and chocolate non-fat frozen yogurt. I added bananas, mochi, nonpareils, and mini chocolate chips. My friend tried a little of all 9 or 10 flavors. We weighed our concoctions together and the total was less than $10. I pay $4-something for my usual at p-berry, so I'd say price is comparable. Granted if you get a medium or large and really pack stuff in, I'm sure it gets pricey. But, dude, who really needs to eat THAT much?

I'll definitely go back. Maybe tomorrow. Ha! Oh, and I'm sure I'll still stop by the others from time to time, especially since they are so much more prevalent. If I have a choice though, it's Menchie's.

We have a frozen yogurt place here but sadly it doesn't taste like the soft serve frozen yogurt I am used to in Nor Cal. It actually tasted like yogurt that had been frozen. WTH?! So now I am back to eating ice cream. Heehee.

Now you have to Yelp it.

@justjenn: I love ya, but getting freaked out over nonpareils is just weird!

@sizzle: Most of our yogurt places (e.g. pinkberry) sell the tart stuff. It's okay, but I was happy to get some sweet frozen yogurt!

@nicole: Nah. It's already been done over 40 times, so I don't feel the need.
