The Terraces: The 8th Wonder

2 11 2008

 

Months after SM City Cebu shocked Cebu when it opened the awesome-looking Northwing, Ayala Center Cebu, last October 30th, opened to the Cebuano public the renovation project which once again placed ACC on top of the heap.

When the Northwing opened with such a bang, many believed that Cebuanos would be seeing a deadend. However, the people behind ACC did their homework well and they created this nice-looking dining destination which easily gave Cebu another reason to stand proud.

Definitely ACC outdid SM this time. I wonder what SM’s going to do next?

Thanks for the pics of the Terraces. Akong gituyo nga mohapit gyud og usa ka adlaw sa Cebu on my way home from a convention to visit Ayala Center. Drank beer with pulutan at Giligan’s with friends who showed up instantly when I called them. The view from up there was exhilarating and refreshing. We enjoyed reminiscing our past when we studied at the school nearby and how the school is now in the midst of city life. Well, can’t help but be awed by the leaps and bounds that Cebu has progressed. Thanks again. I will now make it a point to include it in my future itineraries.
