I was quite disappointed with my trip to Yogo. I am a sucker for any healthy, juicy, smoothie kind…read moreof place where I can create a weird and wonderful concoction, so I was excited when I walked into Yogo, which opened up in Kingston a few months ago. The premise is simple, a place which serves fat free frozen yogurt, and an optional topping of your choice. I had just returned from LA, where I had been introduced to the famous Pinkberry store, which operates on the same principal. I had loved what I had ordered there, and found it very good value for money. I had hoped for the same thing with Yogo, so ordered a small pot with an extra topping. This came to £3.00! the small serving is extremely small, and there was not a huge choice of toppings - about 15 or 16 different types of fruit and a few sweet things like granola, mixed nuts and coconut shavings. It just seems so expensive for something so small. a large serving with a couple of toppings will bring it up to about £5.00. Who can afford to spend this much on frozen yogurt? I went off feeling a bit short changed. I still had my pot when I walked into the health food store around the corner, and the guy behind the till asked my opinion of the place. I told him my gripe, and he said that a lot of people have made the similar complaint - that it is just too expensive. The fact that this place seems quiet when I have gone past echos this; I hope that the prices can be amended, because in principle it is a good, and healthy idea.

Hooray! the weather is smiling, you're out-and-about and craving a healthy snack Yogo recently…read moreopened their first UK branch in Kingston; inspired by images of Paris Hilton in LA, eating frozen yogurt topped with fruit, they spotted a gap in the market. When I first saw their logo and chanced upon this place I thought it was a new yoga venue with a 'clever' name Since my first visit and having discovered more I'm not sure the Paris link is a major selling point but I am a fan of frozen yogurt and theirs professes to be organic and pro-biotic, with just 94 calories in a 100g portion. It's refreshing on a summer's day and a healthier alternative to traditional ice-cream; try it au naturel or go further and up-the-taste by adding a virtuous fresh fruit topping (berry, banana, kiwi or mango), if you're in an indulgent mood add-in chocolate chips, coconut, granola or mixed nuts. (The basic product tastes just like what it is - frozen natural yogurt without a huge amount of flavour.) Then again, you could simply come in here for an organic Fair Trade tea or a reviving Brazilian guarana-fruit bar. It's not the cheapest snack option around (a small portion starts at £1.85) but if you're looking for something cool, healthy and satisfying, it fits the bill in a relatively guilt-free way. You can take a break from your shopping exertions or riverside wandering and eat-in here at one of the simple white table settings or just purchase to-go. Staff are enthusiastic, helpful, patient and happy to offer suggestions or wait while you make your choice. I guess it will be the first in a line of several branches.

I had passed Gelato Mio a few times on the bus but it wasn't until a gloriously sunny day after a long hot walk through Bishop's Park did I finally get a taste. The shop isn't very big and for some crazy reason the counter is quite close to the shop window and the blazing sun but other than that Gelato Mio is my heaven on earth. I've been back more times that I care to admit and I am still seriously contemplating getting one of their take away containers and quickly getting it home in a cab, something that would cost me near £20 just for ice cream! Believe me it is worth it. The scoops are generous and all the classic flavours are there. My favourites are Fragola (strawberry) and Pistaccio where my husband's fav is Stracciatella for the rich chocolate chips. My father loves ice cream and he had only just been in town a few weeks before I made my discovery. During that visit he asked if there was anywhere to go for good ice cream near where we live in Putney. If only I had known about this place when he was here. Sigh. I know they have several locations (including St. Pancras) but I've only been to the Fulham branch. The quality is impeccable so I would bet they are all the same. I better go, I have a cab to call and space in my freezer!

I first tried this new place yesterday evening (well new for me, apparently it has been opened for…read morea year or so), after a very stressful day. So I first went for a coffee to a neaby place that I regularly go to so I was surprised when I saw this place on my way home. I frequently pass by this road but I had never seen this place until yesterday, when I walked it by. This means that this place is easy to miss and probably in the wrong location. It looks like it has just open, all brand new and shiny. At first, it looks like it is a small ice cream shop where you quickly buy your ice cream from and eat it out. However, there is a seating area at the back, which I only noticed when the person that served us mentioned it as we were keen to sit down. The seating area is really quiet and calming, just what I needed. The place was empty, so that helped too. There is a comfy corner sofa as well as a few tables with benches. They also offer hot drinks so it is a nice alternative to the usual coffee shop, particularly as they also have wifi, so a good spot to do some work while sipping your coffee or enjoying a lovely Italian gelato. I guess the downside is that the seating area is inside so not the best option when it is sunny outside. Now, on to the gelato itself.... they were really great! I love ice-cream, although I am not ice cream connoisseur, but these tasted delicious to me. I tried several flavours, as I wasn't sure which ones to order and the person that served us encouraged us to taste them first instead, which was great. So I tasted a few and in the end I had the strawberry one (sooo yummy! very creamy and natural), the chocolate and hazelnut one (if you like Nutella, go for it, enough said!) and the banana and kiwi (again, very creamy and natural, it didn't have the strong flavour that the others had but it was very nice too) The person that served us was also attentive and nice. The person I went with mentioned that it would fit better to have a bubbly and outgoing person instead behind the counter, as the girl was an Italian girl kind of shy and quiet. For me, she contributed to the calmness I felt in the place, which is what I was after, so she helped to make the experience pleasant. The one thing that I will say though is that I found it too pricey, at £2.90 for one scoop. This will mean that rather than go there every time I feel like an ice cream (or even just a coffee, knowing that I would definitely have an ice cream too once I see them), I will just go for an occassional treat, shame :(

Consequently, I have already sampled the majority of the range which mainly focusses on traditional Italian flavours (pistachio, hazelnut, vanilla etc) with a few influences from our US cousins (e.g. cookies & cream and peanut butter). For me, the pistachio gelato is pretty much perfect: silky smooth, with a powerful pistachio flavour. Eating it immediately evoked memories of a hot summer's day in Italy. By these high standards, the vanilla was something of a disappointment and did not pack the same level of flavour and the peanut butter was, for me, simply too sickly and not as refreshing as an ice cream should be. However, these small failings apart, it is still a fantastic luxury to have a gelateria of this quality in your neighbourhood and the queues out of the door on Sunday testified to its popularity with locals and visitors alike.
