Food is Great @ CYMA

Last week, I went to Edsa Shangri-La Plaza with someone and he recommended this restaurant to me... CYMA Greek Taverna... It was really an experience to remember... since it was rarely that we visit this mall... we asked that our names to be included in their long waiting list... It was long... because almost all the people seems to not mind waiting in line than look for other places to eat... Eventhough there were more than 5 other choices beside it... Anyway, I do not really like waiting but we weren't very hungry so it was okay to wait... after all the walks we took just to pass time... we were already being given a table for two... My date was the one who knows about their menu so we ordered one of his best recommended dish... the Swordfish Kebab! For him, he ordered the Eggplant Moussaka! Since the serving was too big for us and we both wanted to have the two dishes, we decided to share... *blushes* haha okay snap it! The smell when my kebab arrived... My goodness! I became hungry in an instant! It was so heavenly... It was worth the wait! The meat of the swordfish was really tender and fresh... and I really like everything that is char-grilled! It enhances the taste of the herbs... I felt like I am getting a seizure! haha okay that was a little too much! But hey I really love food and this was a taste of heaven for me! Anyway, the Moussaka got a really unique taste... very creamy and quite heavy in the tummy... I think it is only good on little servings... yet, the experience of a spoonful of it in my mouth was quite undefinable... it was bursting with flavor... the hint of cheese combined with some sort of a meat and crushed tomatoes really blends well with the flavor of the eggplant... I couldn't really describe the experience with words but I think everybody needs atleast a CYMA moment of his life!!!
