I will actually be looking forward to your other reviews because of this one. I know how it feels when you don't get what you were expecting for, so I'm glad you wrote about it based on your opinion. I don't think you had any intentions of destroying anyone's reputation. You didn't say anything bad that will make people hate the restaurant. It will just make the people avoid the lemon torte, but still nice enough to encourage people to try the other desserts there. That's why I don't know why the people bashing you above said what they said. They were obviously provoking you. Nakakatawa sila. Lalo na yung Marcus. Hahaha! Nagpapasweet sa comments pero halatang nang-iinis lang. Tapos may comment pa siyang ganun about lawyers? Hahahahaha! I'll try Five Cows rin and who knows, I might get a different experience? Pero I'll definitely avoid the lemon torte, haha. I've tried something like that na mango naman, sa may Blue Wave e. Ayoko na maulit ang experience na yun. :) Oh, and lastly, I work in PR. Believe it or not, I work for one of those few who don't pay writers to give good reviews. We give bloggers the experience of eating at restaurants, but it's up to them whether they want to say they had a great time or they hated it. Although shempre, we're hoping maganda sasabihin nila. Kung mabadtrip sila or masiyahan, nasa sa kanila na yun. Basta sabihin lang nila ang totoo. Medyo nalungkot ako sa general reputation ng PR people but I guess that's life. Hindi naman kami kasing sama gaya ng paningin ng mga tao. Or maybe I should change careers? Napa-contemplate ako dun a. Hahaha. Anyway, kudos to your honest account. If I had a blog like yours I would have also written about how dissatisfied I was with Iceberg's food (not the desserts). Not because I wanted to destroy their reputation, but because I wanted to say sa blog ko, "hindi ako nasarapan sa pagkain nila." Hehe. Just like how you did it. Thank you and again, great job!

Five cows´ice cream ay hindi nakakaumay/nakakaulaw/nakakasawa ng ganong kabilis unlike yung iba like bake and churn (too sweet though masarap din, pero mabilis makatuyo, makasuya) I enjoyed my first time. Well then I started having favorite dessert place ng araw na yun. if you are an ice cream lover, you´ll know the differences.

Naalala ko kumain din ako dito I think that was year 2008. We ordered three dishes, ang naalala ko dun ung seafood pasta (forgot the actual name) basta may clams sya. Pagkakain ko may buha-buhangin pa! Kasama ba un sa recipe? Still, I ate it (though I didnt finish it) kasi binayaran ko e. Later after reading some food blogs I realized what the chef did wrong: he didn't soak the clams in water para lumabas ung sand sa loob. Well anyway one wrong dish destroyed their reputation for me. Sayang kasi I wanted to try their advertised best seller ice cream (or was it ice cream cakes?) pero ayoko na bumalik dun.. kakadisappoint. No bang for my buck. Nakakatawa naman tong review na to.
