Breaking news instead of plates on @fox5dc’s Good Day DC. 🇬🇷🍨 THE Greek restaurant destination in DC now serves America’s first authentic Greek ice cream. Georgetown’s own Yala Greek Ice Cream is on the dessert menu at Balos. Save room. We mean it. Thanks @stevechenevey and @JMatter_TV for sharing the scoop—and for making room for Greek ice cream on Good Day DC!

America, we see those froyo lines. 👀 And we get it. Eye-catching spirals, unexpected combinations, that bright tang. What’s not to love? It’s part of why we brought authentic Greek-style ice cream to the U.S. A little familiar. A little new. And a whole lot of Greek. We’ve entered the chat. fooddrinklife.com/froyo-outp…

Can Greek ice cream be a big success? We didn’t open a shop in DC to keep it a secret. Our founder, @CKefalas, joins @DairyFoods to talk Yala Greek Ice Cream. Have a listen. We’ve got a lot more scooping to do.

Greeks did not invent delivery apps. But we’re grateful for them today. DMV: @UberEats, @Grubhub, @DoorDash — we’re still scooping

One of the best parts of being in Georgetown: seeing guests walk through our doors carrying bags from Fiola Mare, @TrabocchiFabio. What a gift you are to Washington and our community. And yeah, we love that people who appreciate what you do seem to like us, too.

We’ve got you covered—in Georgetown and at Conrad Washington, DC. It’s just a drizzle now, come see us for a scoop or pints to go! Or, can also @UberEats or @DoorDash — but we want to see you!

Parea. Your people. Your circle. 🇬🇷 Parea is a Greek word for the people you gather with, the ones who make an ordinary day more fun. We’re building a community around Yala Greek Ice Cream, and we’d love for you to join us. We want our Parea to hear about new flavors, join us for special events, and find ways to come together as we give back to the communities that have welcomed us. And when your birthday comes around, your mikro is on us. Some might call it a loyalty program. To us, it’s Parea. It’s free to join at our Georgetown shop, at Conrad Washington, DC through November 1, or by signing up here: toasttab.com/yala-greek-ice-…

This week, Chrys laid his father, Michael Panagiotis Kefalas, to rest. Known to generations of family, friends and guests as Mr. Mike, Uncle Mike and Michalis, Michael was born in Greece and spent more than half a century in the restaurant business at @costasinn in Baltimore. He was the kind of person people remembered for how he treated them, with kindness, respect and dignity. He welcomed people warmly, took care of them, and never needed attention or credit for doing it. Michael passed away on August 22 at 80 years old, on the beach in Arkasa, the village on Karpathos where “Papou” was born and a place that inspires so much of the heart and love behind Yala Greek Ice Cream. It was through trips back to these islands, where his father and grandfather were from, that Chrys first learned to love the style of ice cream he would one day bring to Washington. And in his father’s way of welcoming and caring for people, he saw an example of hospitality worth carrying forward. So tomorrow, at 5 PM at our Georgetown shop, we’d like to remember Mr. Mike the way we think he’d appreciate most: by treating people. The first 80 guests who visit Yala Greek Ice Cream in Georgetown beginning at 5 p.m. will receive a mikro ice cream on us. Any flavor. No purchase necessary. 80 years. 80 ice creams. This one’s on Mr. Mike. Just say, “Mr. Mike” when ordering.

Loving this lede from @tastecooking. And really loving this whole piece about the scoop shops across America telling stories of culture, memory and place through ice cream. Proud to have Yala Greek Ice Cream and our story be part of it. tastecooking.com/when-ice-cr…

Two fathers. Two cousins. More than half a century of family, food and hospitality. The story of Yala Greek Ice Cream coming to the @MDStateFair alongside @CostasInn Timonium has deep history and legacy. Thank you @WMAR2News for telling the story of part of where we come from, who brought us here, and the new generation carrying it forward.

Baltimore, we’re back for Labor Day Weekend. Yala Greek Ice Cream returns to the @mdstatefair Friday through Monday, scooping outside @CostasInn Timonium at the Grandstand during live racing hours. Crab cakes, soft crabs, live racing and Greek ice cream. See you at the fair. Thanks, @wjz!
