Valley Swirl Moves From Valley Village to La Brea (Fairfax)

Fro-yo girl here. On my recent visit to Cambridge Farms, the kosher market, in Valley Village (a neighborhood in Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley), I noticed that Valley Swirl’s space was vacant. All the equipment and signs had been removed. The pink paint was still there.

Valley Swirl has their own space now and the new address is 524 N La Brea Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90036. It’s in the Fairfax District, close to Pink’s Hot Dogs. The new space is very pink – the same pink they painted the old space.

Valley Swirl offers mix-in style ice cream and froyo, boba, milkshakes, waffles, acai bowls, smoothies, and hot drinks. The ice cream or frozen yogurt base is combined with add-ins and hand-cranked till everything is mixed together. Everything is RCC Kosher. Online ordering is available.

Bases: Dairy vanilla ice cream, Dairy chocolate ice cream, Vanilla froyo, Non-dairy vanilla, Non-dairy chocolate, Sugar-free vanilla, Sugar-free chocolate.

Add-ins: Fruit, nuts, cookies, sauces, cookie dough, cotton candy, sprinkles, etc.

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

Menchie’s Burbank is Moving

Fro-yo girl here. I noticed awhile ago that Menchie’s in Burbank, California was closed. I wasn’t sure what was going on. It turns out that Menchie’s Burbank is moving. They’re staying in the same shopping center and taking over the old Kumon space. That space is right next to their old space. It’s supposed to reopen in the spring of 2022.

The last day at the old space was September 6. They’ve already demolished the inside and reduced it to rubble.

The Menchie’s Burbank shop was just finished with a remodel this year and that remodel took two years (during which time, the shop was open).

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

21 Choices Pasadena Moving Day

Fro-yo girl here. 21 Choices last day at their Old Town Pasadena location (85 W Colorado Blvd., Pasadena, CA) was yesterday, December 30. Today they were moving out their signs, machines, and equipment. They will reopen in early 2019 at the corner of Fair Oaks & Union at the new food hall. The old location has its windows papered over but the door was open and there was a truck and trailer parked on De Lacey filled with items from 21 Choices.

At the moment, the only froyo shop in Old Town Pasadena is Yogurtland. Yogurtland is open on New Year’s Eve from 11 AM – 6 PM and New Year’s Day from 12 PM – 10 PM. Regular hours resume on Wednesday, January 2, 2019.

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