lets SNOG

i saw these pics sat on my hard drive today while i was browsing for some photos to send my friend.

Adrian and i went to taste what people were going gaga over the last few years in the country , a yoghurt ice cream but a healthier one;-)

Snog has been quite popular for some years in England now, but it was one summer day, last year when we got back from our India- Dubai trip that we finally made a taste for it.


The verdict: Adrian loved the taste. I loved the atmosphere and the decor (and the toppings,haha). I still prefer creamy full-fat ice cream;-)

(Note: although since then, ive taken some people to SNOG afterwards just so they can taste why SNOG is a big thing and see whether they agree with Adrian or i).




we went to the one near westend



i first saw the SNOG sign one evening in SOHO when Adrian and were on our weekly dates.



the atmosphere of the place was young and vibrant




there were so many toppings to choose from




Adrian had a taster of the green tea one, which he liked. The nice thing there is they give you small pots of tasters..




the yoghurt itself (classic) is quite cheap, the price goes up once you add more toppings




its never without customers..sometimes queues and queues




im not a very good model for healthy yoghurt



which one do you think ordered which topping? clue: who's the chocoholic?




trafalgar square..it was a very sunny day, a day after we got back from Dubai..perfect for something cold (after a heavy lunch,mind you)..

**



overall, Snog is a great way to clean the palate from a heavy lunch without burdening the stomach more with refined sugary dessert.

but saying that, when the country is in the middle of winter, i might just skip the Snog bar.

Yum! I love that you are writing a review of your food adventure. Please do it more often because you go to so many amazing places and restos.

I wish Patricia would do the same. :) You both write well, you both cook, and you both have very exquisite taste (in everything in life). :)
