Korean-style frozen yogurt and fried chicken as commercial food trends in the States
This is certainly something in the air about Korean items ending up as food trends in the States.
First, NYT reported Kyochon-style fried chicken in Manhattan.
Secondly, the NYT now shines the spotlight on frozen yogurt in California. Inspired by Red Mango, Pinkberry offers the same sour yogurt topped with fruit or cereal.
With that said, I’m just waiting for other rip-offs to enter the fray. Like Iceberry’s vanilla ice cream + ice dessert + sweet bean/fruit toppings (팥빙수) which I’m certain helped launch the frozen yogurt variation.
I wonder where Pinkberry got its name..
