Loyo on the Go

First of all, I think it is impressive to have frozen yogurt on a food truck. Secondly, it is even more impressive to have the high-​quality yogurt from local yogurt. When I ate there they had only three flavors, but that was because they were getting swamped at the downtown Durham food truck rodeo. They did still have a plethora of toppings though, which was great. Also, unlike at their brick and mortar locations (both in Durham), the truck includes two free toppings when you buy the $ 4 frozen yogurt. I am a big fan of their «Original» — which is basically plain yogurt, or tart I guess, but today I had chocolate with oreos and granola because the original was not done freezing yet. The price is pretty reasonable too, just a little more than at their brick and mortar locations.

No surprise that with the beautiful weather we’ve been having, Loyo and Parlour had two of the longest lines at last weekend’s food truck rodeo! This is froyo made easy — there were 4 flavors of yogurt to choose from, and about 15 toppings (your choice of two). Despite the long day, and long lines, they were sporting smiles & still provided samples if you weren’t sure what flavor to commit to. I opted for the original (creamy, tart) with fresh strawberries and granola. The strawberries were diced and scant. But the yogurt portion was more than a whole cup, for $ 4, and everything tasted fresh and yummy. Phil got the watermelon sorbet — wow! this was refreshing, and really tasty — topped with strawberries and mango. I’m glad Loyo decided to launch a mobile unit; it’s a welcome addition for finishing off any food truck fiesta!
