Orange Leaf closing for good after today

[mamajoan.livejournal.com]

Orange Leaf posted on Facebook that today will be their last day of operation because their lease is up. (And everything is 50% off today.) This was news to me! Am I the only one surprised? (Edit: seems like this must have been sudden, because as recently as Sept 8 they posted on Facebook that they were looking to hire two new people.)

With the recent closing of iYo, this leaves quite a froyo gap in the square all of a sudden!? Has froyo had its moment and now become uncool? :(

I never tried the Orange Leaf (and won't get a chance to today). How is(was) it?

In terms of the quality of froyo and toppings, I found it comparable to iYo. I liked them both equally. IYo had the edge in terms of ambience, but Orange Leaf seemed to make more of an effort to be involved in the community: sponsoring Little League teams, holding school fundraisers, etc....
