The Scoop on White House Frozen Yogurt

ARCHIVES

So on Mother's Day, my wife had only one request: That we go get some frozen yogurt after dinner at TCBY. I was more than happy to oblige. So I went to the TCBY Web site to use their handy store locator to find the nearest outlet -- and in no time found one that was pretty convenient. But it was one of the other listings in the results that caught my eye:

The White House

Eisenhower Exec. Office Bldg

1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW

Rm404

Washington, DC 20502

The listing also included a phone number, and a call to it showed that it's not actually a TCBY franchise per se, and not a location that any old person can walk into for a yogurt fix: It's the White House mess.
