Mary Had a Little Lamb, a Little Salmon...and a Little of Everything

I do not blame Mary. Who can resist a buffet table consisting of Grilled Lamb Spareribs, Salmon Carpaccio, Mango Tapioca, and so much more? Add to that a tiny corner for freshly cooked pasta with a sauce of your own choice: pesto, pomodoro, and carbonara. And of course, the wine!

Chef's Quarter, located at the 3rd level of SM Megamall Atrium, is definitely Mary's own palace of hidden wealth: a luxury of Western-infused dishes. Her own version of Open Sesame: dialing (63 2) 706-5336 for reservations.

The lamb spareribs are baked to perfection, with just enough tasteful grease to match the delectable meat. The Salmon Carpaccio is a must-try, with capers that add a sour note to the Salmon in a way that's very light and delightful. And the Mango tapioca - unforgettable! There are real sliced Mangoes with soft gel-like tapioca covered with a light syrup.

In one sitting, Mary can devour all the go, grow, and glow foods she can ever need! If she were only a man with a fiery temper, she would evolve into the Incredible Hulk in less than a minute. Or if she were a robot, she would be the tallest among the Transformers.

There is something about Mary - an innate desire to enjoy a feast ever so discreetly, with frequent visits to the buffet table using tiny plates, sashaying in her above-the-knee dress fitting her figure. One would wonder - where does all that food go?

And the question in one's mind really is...why is she not fat?

Here is a multiple choice.

1. Xenical.
2. Marie France.
3. Dr. Vicky Belo.
4. Lesofat.
5. Slimfast.
6. Herbalife.
7. Fitness First.
8. Slimmers World.
9. Post-Buffet Starvation Program
10. Walk.

Whatever she uses or does prior to, during, or after feasting on a mouth-watering buffet like the one in Chef's Quarter, nobody knows for sure.

One thing is certain - Mary has had and will continue to have a little of everything.

At wherelse but...Chef's Quarter.
