To be honest – and the lady knows that too – I do not quite like the frozen yogurts there. They are always too sweet and the ‘flavour of the day’ does not taste much different from the original except for the faint scent of fruit hardly detectable. They look the same, too, both being creamy whitish in colour. And the texture was not icy but creamy, and how it melts too quickly bugs me.

To be honest – and the lady knows that too – I do not quite like the frozen yogurts there. They are always too sweet and the ‘flavour of the day’ does not taste much different from the original except for the faint scent of fruit hardly detectable. They look the same, too, both being creamy whitish in colour. And the texture was not icy but creamy, and how it melts too quickly bugs me. Despite my complaints I still go on a regular basis whenever I crave for something sweet but healthy, and I would hand over $30 or $40 for a medium moo with three to four toppings. It is NOT cheap at all, as you could get something way tastier and of a bigger portion anywhere else. But no doubt the toppings are of quality. The fruits are always fresh and sweet, and the choice of breakfast cereals is wide enough to dizzy you. The mochi is truly outstanding unlike its chewy and tasteless counterparts in other outlets. But the froyo, as i have said, is just so-so, and it is definitely not worth a long trip across Hong Kong just to have a taste of it.
But indeed, like other food we eat, the flavor of the food is the most important; but location also matters. Milky Cow is capable of attracting many customers because there are schools nearby – numberous primary schools, three to four high schools and one university within footsteps – and there are no competitors around the mid-level to western district area. So whenever lazy people (like me) feel like having a frozen treat but do not want to walk all the way to Caine Road (where yo fresh, yogurtime and berrygood are), Milky Cow is the quick answer to their- and my - sweet tooth.
