CDR King at SM City Cebu

Looking back several years ago getting CD’s and other gadget related products can cost a considerable amount of money. Shipping cost was the main problem during those days. Most consumers do not have any choice but to order it from suppliers like manila and pay a separate amount for shipping. However, days have become better and specialty shops have found ways and means to offer these items at a very low price. One of which is CDR King at SM City Cebu.

World’s 11th Largest Mall

Do you know that the world’s 11th Largest Mall is located in Cebu? I never even expected it, not until I searched the web for answers. Surprisingly SM City Cebu is only a seat behind the top ten largest malls in the World.

With a huge gross floor area of 268,611 square meters, there is no wonder why it belongs to a good spot. SM Prime Holdings owns SM City Cebu, which also operates several SM malls around the Philippines. The mall was opened in November 1993 and since then the corporation has been thriving to expand and give the best experience to mall goers in Cebu.

Many have been patiently waiting to try perhaps the best theater experience to date.

SM Northwing visit

SM Northwing visit

Finally, I was able to visit the newest extension of SM, the Northwing. I didn’t get to join its launching date but I heard it was quite an event, along with ABS-CBN’s Deal or No Deal show which was set on the Northwing’s parking lot.

The P1.3billion worth SM Northwing boosts an overwhelming space that is surely way beyond the usual Cebu mall. By the way, kudos to [Slemarken] of SSC-Cebu for the photos. continue reading » »

Asia Town IT Park: 24/7 in Cebu

Asia Town IT Park: 24/7 in Cebu

We all know about the business outsourcing hub in Cebu is in Asia Town IT Park. What was supposed to be the nightlife haven known by the Cebuanos years ago, The Village, is now filled with business establishments. But now, it’s slowly coming back to become one of the nightlife spots once again.

Asia Town IT Park is not only for business employees who have been spending their time unwinding with these hangout places. The area is also the place where one’s mind is taken to the rhythm of relaxation as well as to just hangout, chill and blend it with a bit of caffeine or food. continue reading » »

Cebu Malls: A mall to rise at Asiatown IT Park

Cebu Malls: A mall to rise at Asiatown IT Park

For years, SM City, Ayala Center, Gaisano stores, BTC (Banilad Town Center) and others have relinquished their dominance in the shopping and entertainment industry here in Cebu. Now, there is going to be another one of those big establishments which is set to rise in the former site of The Village.

This is not that surprising for me at all since the whole IT Park is filled with Business Project Outsourcing and IT-related companies plus hundreds, or thousands, of employees. In the news, the Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corporation (CPVDC) have allocated a hefty amount of P760milliion for the proposed entertainment center and another business process outsourcing building. continue reading » »
