FROYO

It used to be all about ice cream... and now it's all about frozen yoghurt! (aka froyo)
This is a better alternative for those who don't want to gain too much weight for the coming Spring/Summer. There are a lot of places selling frozen yoghurt now... the first one I went to was Wowcow in Newtown. 

doesn't this place look cool? :)


 I ordered a chocolate flavoured froyo with strawberry topping. It was really cheap too!! They have a student special every Monday-Friday before 5pm - a small froyo with 1 choice of topping only $4.95!! :D




My other friends ordered green tea froyo with mochi

 "Noggi" and "Moochi" are also very popular for their froyo! You'll be able to find them both in Strathfield - from what I hear, they've both very similar... so I went to visit Noggi.
They have various sizes suitable for one person or even for a group of 6. The one my friends and I have ordered (on the right) is a maxi (suitable for 4) with green tea and biscotti flavoured froyo with strawberry, cornflakes and m&m's as toppings! 
The cornflakes give the froyo a very nice crunch while the sour-ish strawberries balances the sweetness of the biscotti froyo. The m&m's were out of place IMO. Didn't go very well with the froyo, or maybe because I'm not used to eating chilled m&m's.


Above are waffles we ordered! It came with a mini froyo (we got biscotti again). What made this dessert very sweet was that we got it for half price! why? because it was raining! haha
Like I said, Noggi and Moochi are very popular - mostly among university students. Students, who mostly procrastinate and feel the need for more um... energy, for, you know... to study! haha 
Often the queue will be way out of the shop and onto the streets. so, to encourage people to visit, they offer some desserts for half price to compensate for the fact they have to wait in the rain. ;)

Noggi offers a few other flavours like original, pomegranate and blood orange too! If you haven't been, then go grab a few friends and head down to Strathfield and try some froyo! There's also a Noggi in Macquarie Park! :)
