Cyma Mystery Diner
Trinoma Branch
I was reluctant at first when I received an SMS from a representative of Cyma restaurant asking if I could be their Mystery Diner for a day. I asked myself "Is this some kind of a scam?", "A joke?" What?! Ok, that's what most people would ask, right? What does a Mystery Diner do?
Watermelon & Lamb Salad (To Share PhP 630)
Fresh watermelon and grilled lamb with feta cheese, black olives, sunflower seeds and fresh mint served with Cyma's Summer Herb vinaigrette
After a few SMS exchanges, I found out that it's so simple. When chosen, you and whoever you are bringing, get to eat for free and in return, you have to
answer a Mystery Diner feedback form, email it back to the company and
that's about it.
There's a guideline on which category (salad, appetizer, main course-new!, dessert and drink) you should order but you are free to choose whatever is under that category. For example, under salad, DH and I chose Watermelon & Lamb Salad. It's our all-time favorite so the choice is a no-brainer ; p
For other orders, read after the break....
Melitzanosalata PhP 130
Freshly roasted eggplant, tomatoes, garlic, fresh lemon and EVOO
Pulled Lamb and Arugula Sandwich PhP 425
Carved, slow-roasted and pulled lamb brisket leg served in a crusty baguette with arugula and Greek potatoes
By the time Pulled Lamb and Arugula Sandwich was served, I was already full ; p I think I ate more than half of the salad hahaha The Arugula gave the sandwich a fresh, new taste. Without it, it tasted just like an ordinary Roast beef sandwich.
Steak Souvlaki PhP 495
Skewered with fresh vegetables served with parsely salad and yogurt garlic sauce
The steak was a bit chewy but I like how it tasted... not too salty!
Galaktoboureko PhP 190
Creamy semolina custard in phyllo with orange and lemon zest syrup
More food posts coming up and I will also post more about my Japan trip!
Ciao!
