What have you been cup to lately? Still spooning gelato? Get an upgrade at Fro Yo, Bandra’s latest dessert shop (bpb was the first to tell you about it) that dishes out frozen yogurt.
Kiwi Wonder
Much like Cocoberry a few roads down, Fro Yo disappoints with just four yogurt flavours – blueberry, strawberry, mango and plain – that are served with a bunch of fun toppings including marshmallows, rainbow sprinkles, kiwi, berries, oreo cookies, chocolate sauce. Of the few permutations and combinations we tried, the yum blueberry version with marshmallows and chocolate chips gets our vote. The plain flavour topped up with kiwi works too, while the strawberry version feels a little too milky.
And Some More
Fro Yo also serves about 8 beverages – fruit smoothies and soda-based mocktails - using yogurt. We picked the Sunshine smoothie (bananas, oranges, honey) over the Copa Cabana (pineapple, strawberry and coconut), apparently their version of the Pinacolada. Bright and comforting at the same time, Sunshine is a good bet. Curious to know how yogurt and Sprite would blend, we got the Frojito, a mix of mint, lemon and sprite topped with a swirl of strawberry yogurt that can either be eaten first, or mixed in. Prettier than it tastes, this one’s passable but doesn’t make you call out for an encore. In any case, visiting spooners should probably stick to yogurt in a cup.
Top that Up With Insects Please
We suppose the city will have to wait for other copy cats to join the yogurt cold war before Fro Yo ups the ante with more exciting flavours, ones that are commonplace in the West – cheesecake, acai, tart, peanut butter, spiced apple cider, even plain topped with chocolate covered crickets! Meanwhile, you’ll have to be content one of four flavours that the good folks down at Fro Yo claim is fat-free. Serves you right!
Getting there: Shop no 4, ground floor, Silver Pearl, lane opposite China Gate, Waterfield Road, Bandra (W), Rs 55 for a mini single flavour (Rs 15 and 20 per topping) and Rs 75 for a small smoothie.
