YOMG

67 Kingsway, Glen Waverley

Originally a frozen yogurt store in Mordialloc, YOMG has since expanded to 4 more locations including Mornington, Malvern, Cairns and Glen Waverley. Last year when they expanded to Glen Waverley they also expanded their food menu with a selection of 11 burgers, topped fries, wings and a range of shakes.

Shang-fry $10.00

The Shang-Fry is in a weird place in terms of size, where it is not quite big enough to be a meal by itself, but is too much when ordered with a burger. However the flavours and and balance of the Shang-fry as a snack is perfect, the only problem being that you have to eat it quickly in order for the chips to not get soggy.

Luau Luau $14.50

When visiting a burger joint I don't usually order chicken burgers as I haven't had great experiences with them, however the Luau Luau sounded almost irresistible and I was also in the mood for something different. The burger itself was lovely, the chicken was nicely cooked and tender while the flavours were enhanced by the saltiness of the bacon and the sweetness of the grilled pineapple. A small problem I found with the burger was that the huge slices of pineapple had some of the core left in it, causing the burger to be a little hard to bite through.

The laid back atmosphere, friendly staff and range of food really make YOMG a great hangout spot. I will definitely be back to try their frozen yogurt and shakes.

Yo-Chi

673 Glenferrie Road, Hawthorn

There have been a lot of frozen yogurt stores opening around Melbourne lately and one of the more popular ones is Yo-Chi Frozen Yogurt. Yo-Chi is great place to relax and meet people with a laid back atmosphere over frozen yogurt.

Chic decor

Great hangout place

Variety of flavours

There were a total of eight available flavours when I visited Yo-Chi. I could not pick a single favourite flavour, however I equally enjoyed the salted butterscotch and coconut.

Toppings

Even more toppings

There are a good range of different toppings here, from fruit to chocolate and other goodies to add flavour or texture.

Chocolate and goodies

Almost all of the flavours and toppings

Vanilla, coconut and salted butterscotch

My friend chose to pick as many different flavours and toppings as they wanted and they enjoyed the mixture. I personally chose to have three of the lighter flavours and coupled them with the toppings that would add texture to the frozen yogurt, of these toppings the crunchy cornflake topping was by far the best and I felt like I could eat and entire bowl of the topping by itself.

The staff were also very friendly and helpful. They approached me to help pick out some flavours and offered to let me taste some of the flavours before I chose. Definitely a great hangout spot where you don't have to spent as much and I would definitely come back here.
