The Sky Adventure

Its amazing to try walking on the sky. I mean literally but only with a plank. A transparent plank. So how does it feel walking on the 38th floor of a building while looking at the transparent floor? It feels as if your body is trembling but your insides are extremely happy. A feeling of satisfaction. That’s what I felt when I did the Sky Walk Adventure at the Crown Regency Hotel in Cebu.

Richard King, chairman and CEO of J. King & Sons, is proud of his brainchild. “The Crown Regency Cebu Sky Experience Adventure is the latest attraction in the world’s amusement industry. Nowhere else can you find an amusement center like this at the top of a hotel building.”

King declared, “We are definitely taking the hospitality industry to exciting new tangents. Our future hotel projects will also have rides and thrills similar to this.”

The rides at Crown Regency Cebu are not stopping with the Sky Walk Extreme and Edge Coaster. In 2010, the Insanity Orbit will take a bow. The Insanity Orbit, which is being installed at the 40th floor of the building, is an inverted centrifuge that will take passengers on a spin at up to three Gs. It will pull riders out in escape-proof seats to an angle of 70 degrees, tilting passengers face down from the top floor. The Insanity Orbit will be the second ride of its kind in the world, following the Stratosphere.

Killgore said, “The Crown Regency Cebu Sky Adventure is the total experience. We have the rides, the restaurants, the live bands, and the hotel. It is a one-stop shop. There is nothing like it in the Philippines. People interested in roller coasters must have thought that they only existed in other countries. Here in Cebu, it is accessible and reasonably priced.”

“All this is our humble contribution to our tourism industry. We are proud to say that Cebu is the only spot in the world where you can find this kind of excitement,” King concluded.

Wonton Noodle House at Greenhills

At first my daughter and I were on the prowl for something new to eat 3 years back. Then while strolling along Shoppesville Greenhills, we came across this new Chinese restaurant named WonTon. The first thing that came into our minds were dimsums and with that in mind, we gave it a try. To our surprise they had quite a food listing of items to which we simply asked for the best dish they had.

As most food establishments, they would of course direct us to the more expensive food. So we started to look for something that would be unique to taste. And we found something interesting in these Chicken Teriyaki dishes which cost around Php 195 bucks. Then there was the crispy one which cost less. They were priced at Php 175.

We paired it off with the usual Yang Chow fried rice and some sides like the cheaper Beef Teriyaki and two bottomless house iced tea. In the end, we only spend less than P500 for the whole meal, satisfied and certainly coming back for more.

They have other food dishes worth checking out such as the Spicy Prawns and the Fish Taosi. But if there is one entrée that is pretty addicting, it is the Shrimp Puffs which cost about P120.

Wonton has since grown, opening another branch at the second floor of the Promenade Building across the Greenhills Theater Mall. Check it out and you will certainly not waste your time. A good Chinese restaurant in the heart of Greenhills, Metro Manla!
