Visit the newly opened Yo-Chi in Fremantle
Cult-favourite frozen yogurt brand, Yo-Chi, has just opened a brand new shop in Fremantle - and it's the perfect thing to do this weekend.

The Freo store will also be slinging the new açai blend alongside all the traditional favourites and seasonal specials.
In more Yo-Chi news (because us West Aussies can’t get enough of the stuff), Yo-Chi and Pistachio Papi (the country’s most loved pistachio spread) have collaborated, and it’s the duo we didn’t know we needed. The launch of Pistachio Papi in all Yo-Chi venues will kick off on the 14th of April until the 26th of May (or until it runs out). To further celebrate the collab, Yo-Chi will be giving away free Yo-Chi to all grandmothers and nonnas that come into their closest venue on the 21st of April!
