I'm pretty much always in the mood for frozen yogurt, so when I discovered Qoola on Denman (how could I have missed it?), I knew I'd found a new love. Tons of toppings to choose from, each flavour becomes something unique when these little guys are…More »

Yes, it's a Marble Slab. Yes, the ice cream is *just* as creamy and delicious as any other location, and yes, it's located in one of those giant big-box meccas of the suburbs.

Pick your flavours, pick your topping, pick your size and watch n' drool…More »

OPEN. Finally! Ever since tasting some of Delainy's gluten free goodness at Main Street car free day last fall, I've been waiting and waiting (and maybe waiting a bit more) for her brick and mortar to open its doors.
