Cyma - worth the wait!

CYMA CHOPPED SALAD



Met up with friends for dinner at Cyma in Shangri-la Mall last night. We’ve been wanting to try it out since early December, but there’s always a long queue, and we’re never patient enough to wait it out. Last night, however, there was only one group ahead of us on the waiting list (we got there just a few minutes past 7 pm), so we were able to finally sample Cyma’s Greek / Mediterranean cuisine and find out what the fuss was all about.

Cyma did not disappoint! There were so many yummy-sounding items on the menu that our group of four ordered enough for eight (the waiter agreed to let us occupy a table for eight in order for all the dishes to fit). I highly recommend their Cyma Chopped Salad and the Cyma Crabs with pasta (order an extra platter of pasta for only P90). Both are really soooo good, and I’m getting hungry just remembering these two dishes. You can try their pita triangles with 4 different dips as an appetizer; and their Clams Pasta, Angel hair with Salmon in Tomato-Cream Sauce, Kebabs, and Lamb Chops were also good. For the sugar-wary, Cyma serves Splenda lemonade and Splenda iced tea (by the glass, or go bottomless for an additional P20). Personally though, I prefer ice water.

Cyma is located at the top floor of Shangri-la Mall, near Starbucks. Bring around P500 per person, or more if you plan to treat yourself to a Mediterranean feast.
