The Big Chill

I'll admit, I was a little promiscuous about my frozen yogurt the last couple of weeks. I tried out the plain-tart frozen yogurt at The Big Chill on Olympic on my way home from the gym. TBC has always been a popular frozen yogurt spot, even before pinkberry came into the picture. I got the plain+granola. Pretty interesting. The frozen yogurt was not as tart and fruity tasting as pinkberry and fiore. It had the initial tartness of yogurt, the airy lightness of coolwhip yet the richness of cream cheese. Really!

Also, they had 3 types of granola. Their fat free variety is just like the one @ pinkberry, which is basically plain rolled oats I think. Their "regular" granola was a mixture of oats, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, raisins and coconut shavings. It was really good, very crispy texture.

I also tried out Barenaked Yogurt, the little stand by Coral Tree Express in Century City Mall. I think when it comes to these premium frozen yogurts this is probably the cheapest option. Their "small" is bigger than a pinkberry medium, and for $3.95 you get a choice of two toppings. Pretty darn good deal.

Anyhow, you must think I'm pretty obsessed with frozen yogurt. Well, it's not just me. I kid you not, as I'm writing this post my mom is sitting on the couch and just asked "You know what would be good right now? That ice cream place with the fruit, what's it called?"
