Berrygood is one of the first froyo stores in Hong Kong, so i remembered - it stood in Central long before froyo joints sprouted everywhere in Hong Kong. it was once the only place you could get decent froyo on the Island - now that many other competitors have emerged, and Berrygood has also upgraded itself to put up with the tense competition, just as how it has changed its logo.I think my first visit to Berrygood was 4 years ago, during the summer vacation after the Cert.

I think my first visit to Berrygood was 4 years ago, during the summer vacation after the Cert. Exam - I remembered ordering three big bowls of froyos with colourful toppings, sharing it among a large group of friends. oh so good, and so long were the days.
This time i went alone, as sometimes i felt like eating alone - you can read while you eat, and need not adjust yourself to match the pace nor taste of your eating mate. And so i went to berrygood, a place i have not visited for so long.
I ordered a large 'indulgence' and was glad to know that it has slightly over 200 kcal. As for the three toppings, i picked mochi my all time favourite, digestive biscuits and fresh banana slices off the blade. And oh for the base i picked the swirl of original and green apple.
The first spoonful of froyo reminded me of the good old days - more sour than sweet, i recalled all the moments i had froyos with my friends. The froyo was exactly what i used to have all the times in the past, and it is distinctly different from what is served in milky cow, which i always think is too sweet to be called a 'yogurt'.
anyhow, the tarty yogurt was too watery nonetheless - not icy in texture, it melts off a bit too quickly. but the toppings were fine - bananas were fresh, digestive biscuits fresh-off-the-pack and not soggy, and thanks to the nice shoppkeeper for the generous pour of mochis onto my froyo.
with a satisfied burp i ended my meal - the 'indulgence' was large enough alone to be a meal. And the taste of it, everything of it, made me indulged in my past old good times - so long were the days, and i cannot stop reminiscing.
