Chobani yogurt bar!

For my first food adventure I really need to share my Chobani yogurt bar experience! A few days ago I had just finished up with my internship for the day ( I intern at a public relations firm in Manhattan for the summer) and I decided to go meet my friend Kate down by City Hall. We had a vague idea of where we wanted to eat so we took the subway down towards the Soho area and started to walk. The sky was looking pretty dark and it looked like it was about to rain pretty hard, when something caught my eye from across the street! I saw a big Chobani yogurt sign and right next to it was a Chobani shop! We decided to take shelter from the storm so we ran across the street and into this awesome looking Chobani shop. The outside was all glass and inside the walls had a wood finish which gave it a kind of rustic look. A nice woman wearing all white and a Chobani apron approached me and Kate and asked what we would like to order. I had never see anything like it before. There was a menu of dessert type yogurt creations and a menu of savory yogurt creations! I was most excited to see the menu of savory creations because I'm always the first one to try the new thing on the menu.  I decided to order the plain yogurt (which is the only yogurt flavor they use) with extra virgin olive oil, sea salt and pepper, rosemary and pita chips! It was sooooo delicious. The plain Greek yogurt was creamy but not too creamy and the olive oil and salt and pepper added the perfect amount of spice and Italian flavor that I was looking for! Dipping the pita chips into this yummy creation was the icing on the cake and added just the crunch this snack needed! I was so happy to discover this place because I am always looking for something filling, yet healthy and this was the perfect snack! The shop is located at 150 Prince Street in Soho.  I recommend you check it out!!

Oh and I almost forgot, they give you a glass dish for your yogurt and if you return it when you're done you get 25 cents off your next purchase! I personally liked the dish so I kept it:)

Hello my fellow food lovers!!

Hey guys,  my name is Emily and I am really excited to finally start my very own food adventures blog! I'm currently a Junior at Umass Amherst and born and raised in Bergen County NJ. Since I have enjoyed cooking, eating, and discovering new foods for my entire life, I am surprised it has taken me so long to start blogging about my love for food! I started cooking when I was a little girl, helping my mom in the kitchen breading chicken cutlets, and have continued to expand my knowledge of cooking ever since. I would have to say that my favorite food is Italian due to the fact that I've been surrounded by amazing Italian cooks my entire life! My great grandpa (who came over from the Amalfi Coast region of Italy) taught my grandma, and she taught my mom and my mom taught me! Throughout all of my travels, especially my trips to Italy, London and Israel, I was most inspired by the food that I discovered while exploring local markets and communities within the different cultures.  I hope that my passion for food takes me on many, many more adventures throughout my life and through my blog I hope to meet/inspire people who love food just as much as me!
