menchie's

It seems as though frozen yogurt places have taken over in these parts...everywhere you look there is a frozen yogurt shop.

This was my first trip to Menchie's with BFF.

It is the same concept as Yogurtland...take a cup, fill it up with the flavor(s) of your choice, pick your toppings, weigh and pay for it.

I tried the red velvet with red velvet cake topping, chocolate overload with chocolate brownie topping and pistachio with mini reese's pieces...everything except the pistachio yogurt tasted good.

BFF, tried caramel/dulce de leche and blah!...it didn't taste like anything near caramel nor dulce de leche, actually, we couldn't figure out what it tasted like.

I think I still prefer Yogurtland.

  3. Bummer! I have had Menchies and liked it OK but I usually do the plain or tangy flavors rather than the sweet ones. (I make the exception for Yogurtland's Peanut Butter!) ;-) You continue to eat well!

  4. Getting the pistachio flavor right is really either a hit or a miss... at least, in my experience XD

  8. Hope you're enjoying your time with family and friends during your trip home. I'm pretty simple when it comes to frozen treats so I like either the Gelato Bar at Nordstrom or Honolulu Coffee Company for gelato. I've never been much of a toppings person so I'm satisfied with just the gelato. And I like the old school (for Hawaii people I guess) Yami Yogurt, too.

  9. Weigh and pay....that always works! But this thing with frozen yogurt...I guess it's the health factor that appeals? Nobody likes ice cream anymore?
