WowCow - Darlinghurst

The new craze in town seems to be Froyo. Although it's been around for quite some time, it seems to have really hit off with froyo places popping up all over town. Hubby LOVES froyo. So before dinner one night, hubby dragged me to the nearest froyo place which so happened to be WowCow.

WowCow is like all the other froyo places - yes, it's natural. yes, it's fat free. yes, it's healthy blah blah blah. There's a couple of flavours of frozen yoghurt to choose from (e.g. original, chocolate, strawberry, green tea etc) and a cabinet full of toppings to choose from to add on top (e.g. oreo, strawberry, choc chip etc). The difference between WowCow and the asian brands (e.g. Moochi, Noggi) is that the toppings are not  included in the price. Instead, with each topping, you are paying just that little more - meaning that overall, your froyo is slightly more pricey.

I had a sample of the chocolate froyo here - it tasted alright ish~ More chocolate soft serve tasting than yoghurt tasting. Nonetheless, hubby is a fan of the original flavour and got it with mochi and strawberries this time. He loved it! But he seems to love all froyo so it's probably not a good measure of how good this place is...

So I guess Froyo at WowCow is a bit pricier than some other places (for what you get), but when you're a froyo lover with no other froyo shops around to choose from, you tend to buy it anyway.

Wowcow, well the one at Darlinghurst anyway, has been around for at least a few years but, yeah, don't understand the "sudden" increase in froyo popularity of late.

Try the Wowsticks when you're there next - they're like a baked version of churros.
