(Saturday September 22, 2013)
I wanted to go to The Fort after the Mass but it was raining so we went to Shangrila Mall instead.
We went straight to Cyma but as we have expected, there was a long wait, we were 5th on the waiting list. I went to Powerbooks and Home Concepts on the same floor as the restaurants while waiting for a table.
Home concepts sells nice things
I went down one floor to the art galleries.

I didn’t notice the time, my daughter was already calling. They were already seated and in the process of ordering food when I arrived at Cyma.

Keep this in the freezer. When ready to eat, just pop one in your mouth and let it melt. Do not chew.
