Tuttimelon Burlingame Grand Opening Coverage

Fro-yo girl here. Tuttimelon's expansion continues (yay) and today marked the grand opening of Tuttimelon Burlingame. Tuttimelon Bear and I were there early to catch all the action. The Burlingame location is self-serve (38 cents an ounce, 8 fro-yo machines) with fro-yo and sorbet/gelato, limited seating, the white wavy wall, reddish-orange brick like tiles, and the lacy white globes.



People lined up outside and the doors opened a little after noon. They let in 5 people at a time for awhile and the first 20 received a black or white limited edition Tuttimelon tee (with the flocked logo - this design was given out at the last few Tuttimelon grand openings). The first people to enter were a mother and son from Pacifica. Guests received a small cup which they could fill to their liking - the fro-yo and toppings were free from 12 - 2 PM. The afternoon was surprisingly warm (fro-yo weather).

I didn't witness the raffle this time around but if you're curious, check out Tuttimelon's Facebook page - they usually have photos from their grand openings there. The grand prize was an iPod Nano and they also gave away iPod Shuffles. I scored a special Tuttimelon black polo shirt with orange accents - the shirt designed for Tuttimelon managers. It's so cute - their logo is embroidered on the collar. Mr. Tuttimelon was wearing one today.


I shared a cup of peach and pomegranate fro-yo with Tuttimelon Bear. The fro-yo flavors of the day were: (1) original tart, (2) blueberry tart, (3) strawberry tart, (4) mango tart, (5) pomegranate tart, (6) vanilla, (7) chocolate, and (8) peach tart. We're really digging the peach tart these days.

They had a dozen gelato and sorbet flavors and cones. I didn't see the Sumo Bowl.

Thank you, Tuttimelon and congratulations!

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

Burlingame, the New Fro-yo Hot Spot

Fro-yo girl here. I stopped by Burlingame today to check on the future Tuttimelon (saw the temporary sign and I thought I took a picture of it but it didn't turn out) and future Blush. I saw workmen in both and the race is on to see which one will open first. Tuttimelon's always so fast!



I also spotted the Quickly fro-yo sign and when I crossed the street to get a better look, I noticed the Cherimoya Yogurt sign. At first I thought they came out with a new flavor, cherimoya (and I was intrigued, I'm still wondering what cherimoya fro-yo would taste like).



Actually, Cherimoya is the name of the new fro-yo shop that's taking over the Quickly space. They're going up against Blush, Tuttimelon and Harmony? I don't envy them at all.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
