There we were, Mr. P and I, in the middle of Soho (a notorious “red light district” in the heart of London). What where we doing there? We were having a snog! Oh, daaaahlings, get your minds out of the gutter LOL, I can assure you, there is no monkey business afoot (sigh). No, Mr P and I are trying out a relatively new fad to the UK: frozen yogurt.
Hard to believe right? I mean, in America frozen yogurt has been around for a really long time, but it’s pretty new here. This one, was very different to anything I’ve previously had. In America, the taste of frozen yogurt “attempts” to mimic that of ice cream. Not so at Snog. At Snog it taste like frozen Greek yogurt. There is only a touch of sweetness, which I was told comes from Agave nectar. Despite the sweetener, its very tangy. Being that I am someone who goes through tubs of Greek yogurt like nobody’s business, I thought it was fab. I’m not going to lie to you, it’s not as good as real ice cream, but actually, I don’t think you can really compare this to ice cream, because it is very different. It just happens to also be a frozen desert.
The people behind the counter at Snog are very friendly and helpful and willing to give out samples (yes, Soho is famous for that). There is also loads of little treats to put on your desert that range from healthy options like fruits and nuts, to more “naughty” choices of Oreos and brownies. Quite frankly though, after realising what a Snog tastes like, I don’t think it would pair well with Oreos. I mean, who wants Oreos with Greek yogurt? Yuck! That being said, it does go fabulously well with fruit and nuts. Oh and they also have stuff like honey that you can have on it too.
Hmmm… should I be naughty or nice?
The venu is absolutely adorable and is very kind of Hello Kitty. The tables are shaped like little toadstools, and the whole place is just really bright and colourful.
If you are looking for a delicious fat-free low calorie snack, and you like the taste of Greek yogurt, you are just going to love Snog. I’ll definitely be coming back. So if you see a fabulous Dior clad housewife with an uber large designer handbag in one hand and some pepper spray in the other, in the Soho area, let me assure you, I’m not up to no good, I’m just looking for a Snog.
