    Charcoal froyo
    Laine C.

    Frozen yogurt takes a dark (yummy) turn at BLK 513. My first introduction to BLK 513 was last month at their Eastwood location. I think I finally found my go-to frozen yogurt spot in the Philippines. Little victories, hooray! This location in particular is inside the massive SM North Mall. You'll probably get lost trying to locate it but it's completely normal. I've been to this mall a few times and I still get lost. Their shop is tiny but they've made efficient use of their space! Charcoal frozen yogurt. To be honest, I don't really taste the charcoal flavour. It's not really the charcoal craze I'm after either, but rather the comfort froyo brings to my depressed state. Philippines hasn't been the greatest but I digress. Hah. For 185 Pesos (Dark Skim Cup), you get a decent serving of froyo with your choice of four toppings (one crunch, two fruits, and one sauce). I appreciate the dragonfruit/pitaya fruit topping. One of the perks of living in a tropical country. Rarely do I see this option as a topping back in SoCal so I gotta enjoy this while it lasts, I suppose. The matcha cheesecake sauce is divine but I LOVE the cereal milk sauce. For 185 Pesos or US$3.6, this charcoal froyo is a sweet deal if I do say so myself.

    Ambience We've been passing by this location a number of times already and they FINALLY opened! Dine-in space is limited but shouldn't be too surprising if you've been to their other branches. They have a bleacher-type seat at the right side. Healthy take-out snacks are available and on display at the pillar. Gold Milk Fountain was very lovely to watch while waiting in line, so we definitely included it in our order! Dark Skim Cup with Gold Milk I want to say I was happy we were eating healthy, but we definitely had a lot of sweet stuff in our cup. Gold Milk was insanely good! We took awhile taking photos so the syrup hardened, but cold chocolate is always a good thing! It was very sweet, creamy, milky, caramelly, and full of Valrhona delight! Service They were attentive and friendly.

    Ugh can't believe I walked almost the whole stretch of Megamall A for this! Interesting concept (activated charcoal frozen Greek yogurt). Interesting presentation. Interesting branding. Uninteresting taste! Plus, you cannot get just the frozen yogurt. you're stuck with getting the crunch-yogurt-fruit-yogurt-syrup combo! The rationale given by the server: "it has to stand." Mmmkay. For PHP185, not worth it. Wasted calories!

    Greek yogurt is ridiculously hard to find in Metro Manila and when you do find it, it's ridiculously expensive. When we came across this really hip looking ice cream stand in a nondescript part of Mega A, I was surprised with their product! Activated charcoal nonfat Greek frozen yogurt! The New Age health schpiel surrounding activated charcoal revolves it being a powerful antioxidant that "cleanses your body." From pharmacology all I know is that you can administer it after heavy metal poisoning so take the hype with a grain of salt. But luckily even without the voodoo, it's definitely a solid product still. The yogurt itself is fat free and higher in protein than normal yogurts or ice cream since it's Greek. Flavor-wise I'd call it earthy and almost slightly savory so it's a great contrast with their toppings which are mostly sweet, either cookie or cereal based for the dry toppings and then you get fruit to go with it as well. For ₱185, it's not a bad price at all for a delicious dessert that you don't have to feel bad about eating since it's actually not bad for you!

    Fucking nasty after it melted never buy here!

    Its nasty after eating it all the yogurt melted so bad! Your 189 pesos isnt worthy. The yogurt melted so fast. Never buy here again

    BLK 513 dared to be bold and adventurous by making their main frozen yogurt flavour one that's but conventional, their activated charcoal enabled frozen yogurt which of course carries a murky grey color. And their objective in doing so is to further the health benefits of frozen yogurt by adding a detoxing component which is the charcoal. I personally liked the concept and execution with the resulting yogurt not too sweet nor sour. After the base, you're free to select two toppings and a sauce and come up with all sorts of odd combinations. As for service, the staff are all well trained and ready to give suggestions should you be unsure of what you want, but because of the many possibilities, some people take a while to order and end up holding the line.

    I didn't like this at all. It didn't have the typical yogurt taste and was just bland. I think the available toppings were good though.

    A healthier option for a dessert! You get to choose 1 crunch, 2 fruits, 1 sauce in a cup or cone. The base FroYo is an activated charcoal-enhanced skim loaded with probiotics ( it's healthy) that temporarily colors your tongue. :) choose flavors according to taste! :) They have limited space for seating/ standing though. It's my first time to try and i am not disappointed. I ordered white chocolate crunch, kiwi, strawberry, and espresso latte ( though i think spiced cookie caramel might be a better option for the crunch )

    This place always had a long line whenever I passed by. I finally had the opportunity to find out…read morewhy people fall in line for their yogurt. There's a sign that states where the line starts with poles guiding people as to where they should be falling in line. Like numerous others, I didn't see the sign. People started falling in line by the window, which is where I was sitting. I eventually moved my seat. Now, I totally understand what the hype is all about. They offer fruits, sauces, and crunch options that other frozen yogurt companies do not offer. While I was falling in line, someone was writing down what I wanted to order. I was impressed that she upsold me. I was asked which option I wanted. I opted for a cup or tub. Then she asked if I wanted a medium or a large. She didn't ask if I wanted a small, medium, or large. I'm thankful I ordered a medium! The couple behind me had a slight misunderstanding because the female ordered small for them to share. He didn't sound happy with her choice. Eventually, she changed the order to a larger size. I knew that I wanted mango. I am thankful that the employee suggested the Biscoff crunch and sauce. Oh my gosh, I slowly ate my yogurt. I wanted to enjoy every crunch with the sauce and yogurt. They gave a generous amount of everything. I would highly recommend llaollao!

    Fruit is fresh and the yogurt refreshing. Best dessert on a warm day. But enjoy it quickly! It…read moremelts fast.

Hailing all the way from So-Cal, this yogurt packs the right kind of sourness to its original flavour. There are also a lot of flavours to choose from like Salted Caramel, Green Tea and Pomegranate. I prefer to stick with the original though. And I like my cup filled with cheesecake, mango and shaved almonds. According to their menu, a small cup of their frozen yogurt has about 140 calories. If you include the toppings, it could go as high as 250 calories. This information is only valid if you're health conscious as well. If not, just like me, give in to the temptation of buying their large cup at P180 and if you want to add toppings, it's P275. As for calories, I thought we talked about not caring about that?

They have fruits, granola, cornflakes and whatnot that can be the topping. However, what really sets Red Mango apart from the Fro-yo places is their yummy waffles. Crisp on the outside, soft and chewy inside, these freshly baked waffles are so good. They say that it is made with brown sugar so there's that hint of sweetness. You can get it plain or topped with yogurt for an even more exciting snack. It also comes in different classic and savory combinations. For savory choices, you can get the Fluffy Floss or Ham n' Cheese. For classic, there's Blueberries n' Cream, Banana Almond and Peanut Butter Choco Chip. I love all their classic flavors and haven't tried the savory ones yet. Red Mango offers a lot of other options (parfaits and fresh fruit bowls) but you really need to try the waffles the next time you visit.

It has less fat, less sugar and contains four different types of active cultures which are great for digestion. Their ice cream has three variants; no sugar- added, no sugar-added premium, and chunky. They have over 30 flavours and recently they've included soft-serve yogurts and yogurt popsicles to their menu. They have a lot of unique and wonderful flavours like Sea Salt Caramac (Caramac being a portmanteau of Caramel and Macadamia nuts), Tiramisu (which contains chunks of chocolate cake), Kahlua Brownie (Coffee ice cream with fudgy brownie bits), Cherry Marble (vanilla with cherry bits and syrup) and a whole lot more. Their yogurt popsicles only cost 20 pesos and the flavour is so present that it tastes like it was made from the fruit itself. My personal favourites are the guyabano, avocado and the pistachio. My family and I love BTIC. They've been around for so long that the stall attendants have actually seen me in diapers. (Yes, I make them feel old sometimes.) We drop by nearly everyday especially during the summer because come on, who doesn't love a good scoop of ice cream to beat the heat? Especially if it's better than ice cream.

It's frozen yogurt, yes, and it tastes almost exactly as if you were having ice cream -- creamy and not too tart. They have amazing flavors for no-sugar-added or chunky hard frozen yogurt such as Cherry Marble, Pistachio, Bubble Gum, and Dark Choco Almond, to name a few, but the real winners for me are the frozen yogurt popsicles. For Php 20 -- yes, just 20 -- you get amazing bars of frozen yogurt with simple but super yummy flavors, like strawberry, avocado, melon, mango, etc. And the best part is, they're so not drippy! So you can be walking around during a hot summer dar or enjoying one in the car and they will barely melt and drip on your hand or wherever. It's a super hassle-free way to enjoy a healthy frozen treat.
