Yogurt Berry, Ktown

After my adventures with Korean BBQ, the guys and I decided to take a stroll down Wilshire Blvd to check out the Korean-Korean Yogurt spot, Yogurt Berry. I call it Korean-Korean because even though the surge of yogurt places (Pink Berry, Red Mango, Yogurt Land) are all Korean owned businesses, and business ideas inspired from the motherland, I wanted to see if Ktown's version of Westerized yogurt places was similar.

The place is really cute, as are most froyo places as of late. It is painted pink with black chandeliers and a funky shabby chic feel to it. The set up is similar to yogurt land where it is self serve yogurt and toppings, and they charge you after for 30cents an oz. They had about 10 different flavors, so I decided to try a triage of peach with cheesecake crumbles on top, pistachio topped with peanuts and cappuccino with chocolate chips.
I really liked the various flavors of yogurts, I think my favorite was the pistachio, then cappuccino, and lastly, peach, but they were all really good and light. I liked it because the texture was less creamy, a little more gritty, and definitely more icy. It was a perfect way to finish off a heavy dinner.
The lady behind the counter-- presumably the owner-- was also very nice, she chatted me up when I asked her about the toppings.
Next time I'm in K-town, I'd go back to this place.
