| - Despite it being all cold and wintery, I do love me some froyo, so I took the opportunity to try out deKEFIR when I was working in the area. After my first try, I came back twice in the span of two weeks and introduced my co-workers to it, so you can tell I'm definitely a fan!
On each occasion I've been here, the staff have been super friendly and helpful. I've only tried the frozen (small) and I always pay the extra $1 for 3 additional toppings because I think it's totally worth it. They have a pretty good selection of toppings (obviously not as much as Menchies), but they are 100 times healthier and some of them are really interesting. I've gotten pineapples, berries, grapefruit and pomelo, shredded coconut, in-house made granola, toasted sesame walnuts, chocolate chips, and crackle bits. I would definitely recommend the crackle bits and walnuts! Also, unlike Yogen-Fruz, their fruits are fresh and not frozen :D
After tax it ends up being $5+, which is a tad pricey, but I justify it by thinking about the pro-biotics and healthiness and the fact that you get a pretty good amount. The kefir is less creamy and has a slightly more 'icy' texture than regular froyo. It has a really natural taste though and is a little bit tart, but I looooove it. It might be an acquired tasted though - the first time I came with my co-worker he said he didn't like it, but then it grew on him and he dragged me back with him like two days later. I can definitely see myself coming a lot here especially as the weather starts to warm up, and hopefully they'll keep changing up the toppings and will have some new ones to try by then.
Tip: They have a loyalty program/stamp card thing going on, so grab one if you think you'll be coming a lot, and you can easily get free toppings, or free treats! (I think it only takes 4 stamps to get something :D)
