Quality has its price, and you'll realize this as soon as you sit down and order at Swensen's. Fortunately, their ice cream is of the premuim kind. Everything from the vanilla, coffee, mocha and other fruit flavors are just so tasty, flavourful, thick and the texture smooth. You can tell that its not local. The last time we were here, we ordered what they call the "hurricane" and the "earthquake" (something like 8 scoops + toppings in a huge bowl) hoping that for their price, one order would be enough for 4 persons sharing. Wishful thinking. It was not enough. The kids weren't satisfied and ordered for more, and this time, they ordered on an individual basis. The bank went broke! The pictures of their ice cream creations are beautiful but they were probably taken too close that they look huge, but huge they are not.Are we going back? Yes, definitely but only on very special occasions....not unless they increase their serving size.

Swensen's from San Francisco, California has brought two other variations for your palates: Strawberry Crepe and Strawberry Chocolate Lava. C'est magnifique!With two blogger friends, I came to Swensen's (MOA) to have a first taste of both these ice cream viands. Swensen's Philippines Marketing Manager Ace Azarraga offered a handshake and introduced himself, upon my entrance. He welcomed us as part of the event and told us about Swensen's formidable team headed by Lizzie Guerrero (owner and general manager).The light background music, cool temperature, and the modern layout of the area helped to convince customers to stay and feel satisfied throughout.The Strawberry Crepe can make you feel in love, with the food under your nose. The cream had decent frothy goodness and surprisingly, the crepe was so soft and smooth that it can catch you off guard. It was not fried and it was not hot. The taste of chocolate syrup blended with the vanilla and strawberry ice creams well.Secondly, the Strawberry Chocolate Lava was presented neatly with a small rounded chocolate fudge, swirly whipped cream, bits of frozen strawberries and strawberry ice cream. When I combined all these ingredients in each bite, what I found was a revelation. Crepes, ice creams and sundaes aren't anything new, but Swensen's most endearing feature is that it offers classy ice creams and treats with a static meniscus of tasteful loveliness.Price does not come cheap.To read my complete review, go to http://rochkirstin.com/review-of-swensens-strawberry-in-love-sm-mall-of-asia-pasay/
