Fro-yo girl here. Yogurtland just opened in El Monte, replacing Menchie's. They renovated the interior, and the shop looks bright and clean. Thankfully, they also installed new soft serve machines and built a new toppings bar.
Choose from 16 froyo flavors a day, toppings, and sauces, for $0.81/oz. They will give you sample cups if you ask (yay). For toppings, they had fruit, popping boba, cookies, marshmallows, nuts, cereal, cookies, chocolate chips, cereal, candy, brownies, cheesecake, sprinkles, mochi, whipped cream, etc.
Flavors of the day:
* Root beer float: sweet, creamy, did taste like root beer, pretty sweet
* Plain tart
* Toasted coconut: one of the best flavors, creamy and sweet, the coconut flavor goes well with the creamy base, it tastes natural
* Cheesecake
* Rich chocolate ice cream
* Creamy vanilla ice cream
* Fresh strawberry
* Classic cookies & cream
* Pistachio
* Fruit punch sorbet: didn't like this at all, tasted artificial and super sweet
* French vanilla NSA
* Space Ranger berry blast
* Watermelon sorbet
* Rocket pop sorbet
* Alphonso mango tart: very nice, tastes like ripe mango, a sweeter "tart", smooth texture
The texture of the froyo was really good, better than at the average YL. Service was excellent. Sign up for Real Rewards to collect points and earn free froyo. Parking was easy to find.
I should also mention the cute Toy Story spoons - the promo is ending soon.
