UYE @ Tartini Frozen Yogurt Bar 08.18.2008

First UYE was pretty cool.
Thanks to Carol and everyone else I met for being very welcoming.
The frozen yogurt at this place was pretty good too.

I came late due to work, but thanks Carol for setting this up. I actually never been here before or really noticed where it was, but I’m glad that I do now. I didn’t get a chance to meet many people at the event, but hey, at least I got out of there with a few free Unilocal swag and some froyo.
Lisa and Paula’s (the owners) hospitality was very greeting and I got to talk to them and understand what they’re trying to do here. It wasn’t until everyone left and I didn’t want to look like the lone stalker at the place, so I quickly gobbled my froyo and said my goodbyes and bounced. Nice job with the place by the way… very modern and the yogurt was creamy and tarty. You will definitely see me come back here again and another shout out to Carol for setting up my first Unilocal event.

My first UYE event!
Thanks to Carol for organizing this event! Thanks also to Lisa and Paula for hosting. Also great to meet Connie, and some of other fellow Unilocalers who made me welcome.
Plus, yogurt was great.

Thanks Carol for working with the wonderful staff at Tartini and organizing such a fun event for Unilocalers! It was so great to meet a lot of new faces, especially Lynn and Angelo’s adorable daughters. As you can tell, I have a sweet spot not only for froyo, but for kids!
Lisa and Paula were very gracious hostesses, and it was so nice that they offered us a 10% discount and even provided us with a new flavor: mango! I loved sampling it, and found a new favorite, taro. YUM!
I’m not sure how long the froyo craze will be going on for, but I’m going to enjoy it while it lasts and these froyo UYEs are a great (and healthier) alternative to boozy happy hours!
Should I be the spokesperson for Tartini? ;)

This was my third trip to Tartini’s and it certainly is a nice change from ice cream. Sample cups are given if you’re not sure the flavor is something you will like (I loved sampling them all!). I chose a mixture of honeydew, pomgranate, and taro root. It was a light treat, not to mention the different toppings that you can add to your yogurt. Lots of assorted diced pieces of fruit, like strawberries, kiwi, pineapple, etc. Today, I preferred to eat it plain, as I loved the tangy taste of yogurt with touch of sweetness. Great pick-​me-​up for those hot summer days when the sweet tooth strikes.

Woo hoo yummy froyo and a chance to hang out with fellow Unilocalers? Definitely not to be missed.
I loved the variety of flavors offered at Tartini! Mango, raspberry, pomegranate, lycée, original… I think I sampled all of them thanks to the friendly guy dispensing the samples! What I loved most about this place was that the fruit was FRESH and SWEET! I LOVE LOVE LOVE fresh fruit in my yogurt and here, the fruit was just fantastic.
Thank you Carol for organizing this great event and Paula and Lisa for welcoming all the Unilocalers into their lovely store. The Unilocal discount was also much appreciated.

Yum yum, can’t get enough of tart fro yos! Shoutouts to Carol L. and co-​owners (Lisa and Paula) for putting together this awesome UYE!
Got to meet some new peeps and chill out with the usual SBC Unilocalers. I brought along my SO and dog, Scrappy, he loves attention! :)
I got the tart original, peach, raspberry, and mango (their new flavor) with mochis! They were all de-​lish and will definitely be coming back here again.

I had a ton of fun at the event. I been here two times before the UYE and filling up my frequent buyer card. It was so nice to met Paula and Lisa. So do I really look like Paula?
Your Taro froyo is growing on me. I love your Mango one, that one is good! The best by far for me right now is your Honeydew one.
As usual it was nice to see all the famous Unilocalers. Plus I met some new ones too. I guess we are all packing in the Froyo UYEs before winter hits. See you all at the next event.

Aww… my second event I attended. Once again, a fun experience to see new faces and to meet a few of the SBC clan again for a little dessert… before dinner? Too bad I couldn’t join in for dinner afterwards for some lil’ curry.
I enjoyed the mango yogurt, which they had just added to the menu. Yummy! I must’ve spoiled my appetite since I no longer had enough room for dinner afterwards.
Connie, thanks for the hoodie! I finally got it… after how long?
It was nice seeing everyone take a scoop or two or a whole large bowl of some frozen yogurt topped with many variations of fruits, granola, chocolate sprinkles, etc.
Tartini…you guys did a wonderful job!

That was fun! And Tartini rocks! I loved the raspberry and all the toppings… my daughter nearly when crazy when she saw they had ceral toppings!
Thanks Carol! And thank you Connie for the cool Unilocal swag for my daughter. She loves it!
Mikey, it was nice to meet you! You are my first… Unilocaler to meet, that is!
Dennis and all the other Unilocalers I met there seemed very cool but my daughter was intent on going to see the fountains outside so we spent time out there. Nice grassy area there.
I will definetly be back here for more fro yo!!! YUM!!!

How can you not give 5 stars when the establishment works so hard at making everyone feel welcome.
I’ve been to a few UYEs now and I have to say, this one was just as unique and special as the others. With Unilocal name tags, and tchatchkies all over the place, and discounted Froyo’s, what’s not to like?
Oh, I see it was Connie who brought the logo goods. Coolies. Thanks Connie.
Seeing friends and meeting new people was great. I didn’t get to talk to everyone who was there who I hadn’t met, but it was still really great to meet some new folks.
I was looking forward to meeting Lynn W. but I guess Michael C. and I got there too late. Oh well. Better luck next time.
Great UYE as always and looking forward to many more.

Fun times!
Thanks to Carol for setting this up. I’d never had frozen yogurt and been able to put my own toppings on it. Thanks for the new experience!
The mango yogurt was yummy! I found that they had those coconut gel things as a topping selection! I had to pile those onto my yogurt with mandarins and almond. I’m gonna have to try this place again for the Taro yogurt or as my daughters called it «Ube» yogurt.
Thanks Connie for bringing the Unilocal swag, my girls love it and keep putting «Lipstick» on and are taking notes for their busy weeks LOL
It was nice to see everyone again and nice to meet some new peoples.

Aw cmon now James you didn’t even go to the event! :)
I just came back from it. My review is legit because I went to the event and then wrote a review. Why are First to Reviews so sought after anyhow?
Thanks to Carol whom I finally met for organizing and good luck with the Rebel! Hello to Connie as well. Had no idea she was coming but always a pleasure to see her.
I go to Tartini anyhow but it was nice to see some Unilocalers.
Lisa and Paula, best of luck and we at Symantec love your icy tart yogurt! I realize in a way that can be misconstrued as perverse but oh well. Who needs Red Mango, Tartini rocks the casbah.

Gold !

=======================================================
Update 08.19.2008:
Jimmy got there AFTER the big throngs of Unilocal Crowds at about 8PM. I decided to get some Greek/​Med chow at Yiassoo (see:
) down the street based on Jen S. review (see:
). While the crowd had thinned out significantly, it gave me a great opportunity to chat with the Paula to learn more about the Fro-​Yo business and get to meet Lisa the other co-​owner.
Mango Tart is a new flavor at Tartini, which I think was introduced at the UYE. Good stuff and I liked it better than Nubi’s Mango Tart (see:
), which is both tart and overpoweringly sweet.
Thanks to Carol for setting up this UYE at Tartini!
