So ladies and gentlemen, I know my frozen yogurt. I loved it when these Korean Americans decided to start a frozen yogurt company and the imitators are following suit. More choices for me and you! <span id="bizPhone" class="tel"><br /><br /></span>So, here is my intake about this place. Starberry sounds so much like <a href="http://www.pinkberry.com/">Pinkberry</a> and taste so much like it too. Run by Koreans too, just like <a href="http://www.redmangousa.com/default.html">Red Mango</a> with these nutty Koreans going nut so over fruity name. Love the imitation (and so typically Korean), but out of the three I prefer Red Mango but since RM is nowhere to be found in Sunnyside unless I go to Flushing, I can be somewhat be content with this one.<br /><br /><br /><br />As I've mentioned Starberry tastes like Pinkberry which tends to be on the tarty side. It hits your mouth with a cold icy sour taste that can give you more jolt than a cup of coffee.

Large cost $5.69 including tax! Topping was $2.00. Are they nuts? Do they think they are in Manhattan? The beauty of being in 4 other boroughs of NYC is to have good things in less outrageous price! The baked goods were any better with the prices. I may take a trip to Flushing to some shopping and fill myself with Asian bakery. (Have you tried <a href="http://www.parisbaguetteusa.com/">Paris Baguette</a>? Don't get me started. It taste better than the ones in Korea.)<br /><br />So we made our own topping with chocolate bunny - sorry bunny - and saved myself some money.

I have not found anything in the neighborhood yet - there's a cafe that I will eventually try and provide a full report. In any case, if you want a kick in the butt, <a href="http://www.gorillacoffee.com/">Gorilla Coffee</a> will be the one! Why? It's yummy AND this is only one coffee that can keep me awake but they are in Brooklyn. They do deliver if you order and I recall seeing their beans in Whole Foods. I recommend it.<br /><br />I also enjoy <a href="http://thegreydog.com/">Grey Dog's Coffee</a> located in the Village. The cafe has great food too - including breakfast! Yummy!

I asked for a French curller and I was a little shocked that it cost $1.50. $1.50 for a donut? It better be good. I had their donuts before, the old fashion donuts, and that was good but nothing spectacular. French curller I thought was nothing special either but I will definitely choose it over Dunkin Donut.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Baruir’s coffee</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">40-07 Queens Blvd, Sunnyside, NY 11104</span><br /><br />I am not a coffee connoisseur but those who know me know that I am a fan of coffee. I have heard about Baruir’s through various websites with high recommendation. Thus it should not be a surprise that I went in search for it.<br /><br />The outside seems outdated but the florist next door makes up for it. I love the inside.<br />It’s simple and nothing fancy.
