Joya and tasti D lite, Cobble Hill

Papaya Salad, Spicy Squid Salad, Green Curry with Pork, Mojito

Dulce de Leche Frozen Yogurt

Oh, Joya.  So loud.  So trendy.  So cheap.  So good.  I've lived in this neighborhood for over two years but have yet to go into the tasti D lite (the official spelling, thank you very much).  If you've ever been to Chapel Hill and eaten at the Yogurt Pump, you would be disappointed.  J's chocolate frozen yogurt bordered on inedible.  My dulce de leche was acceptable, if not a total knock-off of McDonald's vanilla shakes.  And sure enough, with a little research you'll notice that both use the same supposedly healthier sweetener: high fructose corn syrup.
