Can we just mention how ecstatic we are that froyo is making a comeback? Not that we ever lost our love for the frozen treat but we're so excited that @yoniquefroyo is here to stay.

Located at the new building beside Baiduri Bank Kiulap, they're open from Tuesdays to Sundays from 2-9.30pm. There may be long queues ahead but from what we hear it's worth the wait! ❤️

Photo credits to our foodie friend @johan.danial who highly recommends their Speculoos sauce as a froyo topping! 😍
