Where We Are Going today: Fro-Yo in Jeddah
While visiting The Village Mall in Jeddah — one of the city's newest and most sophisticated spots for shopping, dining, and groceries — I noticed a pop-up stand for a new frozen Greek yoghurt brand that instantly caught my attention.
Curious and in need of something refreshing on a hot summer's day, I walked over and saw a crowd gathered around the stand. I figured, why not give it a try?
Although I was in a bit of a rush, I was overwhelmed by the variety of flavors and toppings. I asked the friendly staff member for recommendations and ended up choosing two scoops: strawberry mango and a mix of blackberry and plain yoghurt. She also suggested adding homemade organic blackberry sauce, and I topped it off with some fresh strawberry slices.
I gave it a try in the car and, wow, the mix was delicious: creamy, light, and bursting with flavor. Despite being made with only organic frozen Greek yoghurt, it had a rich, satisfying texture.
The homemade berry sauce was a standout: tangy, fresh, and perfectly balanced. The experience was joyful, and I devoured it quickly. At SR24 for two scoops it felt a bit pricey, but worth it for the quality and freshness.
Next time I will go for the strawberry mango flavor again, paired with just the blackberry sauce. It was the perfect combo.
For reference, a smaller portion (one scoop) costs SR20, and other options go up to SR28.
Fro-Yo also offers customizable sundaes, part of its 'Make Your Own Fro-Yo' concept, where you can choose the size, base, and toppings.
I would give it eight out of 10. It is a bit pricey, but refreshing and genuinely delicious.
