    The star of their menu is their Paidakia or char-grilled lamb ribs with Greek roasted potatoes.

    Another must-try is their Braised Lamb Shank—a slow-cooked masterpiece so tender the meat falls right off the bone. Served in a rich, herb-infused sauce with diced carrots and potatoes.

    For health buffs, Roka Salatais is a bright Greek arugula salad, featuring peppery roka leaves tossed with a light lemon–olive oil dressing and typically accented with shaved Parmesan and crunchy walnuts.

    Refreshing and slightly tangy, it’s a perfect palate-cleanser or side for grilled meats and seafood.

    Another crowd favorite is the Saganaki, CYMA Greek Taverna’s dramatic flaming cheese experience. Melted mozzarella and parmigiano reggiano arrive in a sizzling skillet, finished with a splash of brandy that ignites into a spectacular “Opa!” (Cheers!) moment.

    For a gourmet twist, Saganaki with Figs, featuring fried kefalotiri cheese balanced by peppered fig jam—sweet, savory, and unforgettable.

    To make the experience even better, CYMA Greek Taverna also offers Happy Hour specials, perfect for unwinding with friends after a day under the sun. Pair their refreshing drinks with their Bar Bites and soak in the lively D’Mall atmosphere as the island transitions from day to night.

    Palm Grill in Quezon City: Discover the Bold Flavors of Zambasulta Cuisine
    Palm Grill in Quezon City is a one-of-a-kind dining destination that brings the authentic cuisine of South of Mindanao to Luzon. Established in 2017, Palm Grill proudly serves the rich flavors, vibrant culture, and storied history of the Zambasulta region—Zamboanga, Basilan, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi—offering diners a rare opportunity to explore Southern Mindanaon dishes without leaving Metro Manila. Known as the only authentic Southern Mindanaon restaurant in Luzon, Palm Grill goes beyond simply serving food. It showcases culinary traditions deeply rooted in Tausug and Zamboangueño heritage, highlighting ingredients and cooking techniques that are not commonly found in mainstream Filipino restaurants. A must-try for first-time diners is the Dulang (Php 1,119)—a specialty tray traditionally served during royal banquets. This curated sampler features a variety of Palm Grill’s signature dishes, making it the perfect introduction to the bold and layered flavors of Zambasulta cuisine. Presented generously and meant for sharing, it reflects the communal spirit of Southern dining. Another standout is the Tiyula Itum (Php 560), a striking black beef soup from the Tausug community. Cooked with lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, garlic, onions, and pepper, its distinctive dark color comes from burnt coconut meat, which imparts a deep, smoky richness. Often described as “Bulalo 2.0,” it offers a comforting yet complex flavor profile that surprises and delights. For something hearty and satisfying, the Beef Satti (Php 300) delivers skewered beef served with a flavorful sauce that perfectly balances sweet, savory, and spicy notes. It’s a beloved Southern staple that captures the bold personality of Mindanao’s cuisine. Through its thoughtfully prepared dishes and dedication to authenticity, Palm Grill continues to champion the culinary identity of Zambasulta. For diners in Quezon City seeking flavors beyond the usual Filipino fare, Palm Grill offers an immersive experience—where history, culture, and cuisine come together in every bite.
