Meet Donna Brown
Five years ago, my husband and I wanted to bring a family friendly restaurant to Colleyville. We looked at several options but fell in love with Menchie’s frozen yogurt. We thought the product was superior and enjoyed the experience of going into a Menchie’s. Each guest is welcomed in with “Hi, welcome to Menchie’s.” Several flavors are offered which include vegan, dairy free, and gluten free options. Coming into Menchie’s you will have the choice of 14 flavors of frozen yogurt. We encourage sampling before you grab your cup. Once you fill your cup you have over 50 toppings to select from including nuts, granola, fresh fruit, and sauces.
My favorite mix is Irish Mint froyo with peanuts, chopped Reese’s, and hot fudge. We also make custom cakes in house with our frozen yogurt. My favorite cake is Mookie’s Cookie & Cream cake.
When I am not at Menchie’s, I enjoy sewing quilts, reading, and playing board games. My husband Bill and I will be married 37 years this December. We have 6 girls and 2 boys, and 6 grandchildren. We feel very blessed to be part of Colleyville and we hope to see you soon.

Meet Scott and Ellen Choi
I was born outside Seoul Korea, and my family moved to Alaska when I was 13. While I was learning English and playing soccer in Alaska, one thing that was always constant in my life was the restaurant business. You could say that restaurant ownership is in my blood, because my parents, three uncles and my sister have all owned restaurants at some point in their lives. After I married Ellen, we lived briefly in California before settling in Washington State, where we started our own Asian restaurant. Ellen, a sculpture artist with a Master's Degree in Fine Arts, also left Korea to pursue the American dream, and met me in the process.
After my mother retired from the restaurant business, she gave me many of her secret sauce recipes, which I used in my restaurant in Bremerton, Washington and now at Honey Teriyaki in Colleyville. We make 17 sauces from scratch weekly, and we use more honey than sugar (70/30) in many of these sauces. Since opening Honey Teriyaki on March 15, 2018, our customers favorite dishes have been the chicken teriyaki, cali bowl and the gyoza bowl. I hope you can come visit us soon!
