FroYo!

The best frozen yogurt in Los Angeles:

Ever since around 2006, frozen yogurt shops have popped up all over Los Angeles. I've been to several places and came up with the LA's best 2 places to get frozen yogurt.


The Bigg Chill

1. The Bigg Chill
    10850 Olympic Blvd.
    Westwood, CA 90064

Hit or a Miss? Hit!

My opinion:
Don't be fooled by the exterior. It might be tucked away in a little strip mall, but The Bigg Chill has the best frozen yogurt I've ever had. First, you definitely get your money's worth. The portions are HUGE. All of the froyo is fat free and they have a variety of toppings. The toppings aren't as extensive as those of a lot of other popular froyo places, but good nonetheless. Their froyo is just to die for: creamy, smooth and fulfilling. You know how sometimes you go to a self-serve froyo place and when you pull the lever the yogurt comes out with a bit of liquidy melted yogurt? Well you'll never find that at The Bigg Chill! I can't put into words how much I love their frozen yogurt. It's just perfect. I'm not a big fan of chocolate ice cream/froyo, so I never get it. I always get vanilla. So the first time I went I got a small with half vanilla and half peanut butter. Oh my goodness...it was just amazing. I didn't have to get toppings because I would've been happy with just the yogurt, but I got kit kat, which hit the spot. You really have to try it for yourself. The Bigg Chill is just another testament to how it's the inside that counts, not the outside. Also, parking isn't too hard to find because of the little parking lot right in front.

    872 Via de la Paz
    Pacific Palisades, CA 90272

My opinion:
The name really gives it all away. Seriously, I've never seen such a large selection of toppings. They have everything from potato chips, to jujubes, from kit kat, to white chocolate covered oreos. It's unbelievable how many different toppings they have! Their froyo was really good too. I'll admit it wasn't as good as the froyo I had at the Bigg Chill. Their's seemed a bit on the 'icy' side, just not as creamy/smooth. Still I didn't get any of the annoying melted yogurt that first comes out of the machine. Oh yea, I forgot to mention that it's self-serve fro-yo. You have to go for the yogurt and the toppings. If toppings and the Bigg Chill came together they'd make the absolute best frozen yogurt place in the world. The only down side to toppings is that it's really hard to find parking at a busy time of day.
