Le Phant Milk Tea Co. Coming To Westwood Village

It looks like a new specialty drink spot is setting up housekeeping at 10911 Lindbrook in Westwood Village.  There’s a large banner over the former Yogurtland space announcing the arrival of Le Phant Milk Tea Co.  Not much on social media yet, but we have this from the Westwood Village Business Directory: “We are 2 quirky twenty-agers who want to share our best version of milk teas. We brew premium loose-leaf teas, mix it with our house creamer (no preservative-filled powders utilized), and add on made-from-scratch muscovado brown sugar boba. We can’t wait to serve you all.”  We wish them the best of luck…

Bacio Di Latte Blessing Brentwood Soon…

People go crazy for the luscious gelato at Bacio di Latte in The Westfield Century City Shopping Center.  Now fans in Brentwood won’t have to drive so far.  Window paper is up on the space that was the home of Yogurtland, at 11706 San Vicente, proclaiming the triumphant news that Bacio di Latte is moving in.  You’re welcome.

Yogurtland Bids Adieu To Brentwood

I’m hearing from readers that Brentwood’s beloved icy treat shop Yogurtland appears to have vacated its longtime location at 11706 San Vicente Blvd.  I’m not sure what happened, but as real estate prices rise, the busy retail and food section along San Vicente appears to be undergoing a transformation.  Kreation recently skedaddled, and so did Hollywood old school fave Vicenti, both with big splashy replacements on the way.  I’ll keep my eye on the space to see what may develop.

It’s Official: Yogurtland Montana Ave. Permanently Closed

In early December, I told you about the temporary closure of the Yogurtland at 1426 Montana Ave. in Santa Monica.  At the time, they had signs posted that they were remodeling.  Later in the month, I noticed that the space looked vacated.  Well, as you can tell by the for lease notice in the window, Yogurtland will not be reopening on Montana.  Furthermore, I heard from a former employee that the workers were not even notified.  Sadly, they showed up for work and the place had been stripped.  So, I think we can safely say that we’ve finally seen the end of the Yogurtland drama.

Yogurtland Coming Soon To Montana Ave.

In case you’ve been lying awake at night worried that there simply aren’t enough places to procure frozen treats on Montana Ave. in Santa Monica, you’re in luck.  It looks like an outpost of Yogurtland is moving into the space left by Lucky Brand at 1426 Montana.  As always, I’ll keep you posted…
