I finally had the opportunity to see The Gateway, Cubao's new grand mall right by the Araneta Center. Bright and clean, with lots of new-to-me restaurants, the mall's architecture is quite impressive, at least from the outside.
Surely, Cubao will get back the glorty it enjoyed in the 1970's. In my analysis, the usual foot traffic will be there. Added to that, the coño, alta de sociedads will also come out of curiosity, and disappointed they won't be. At least there is a bright underground parking for their BMWs.
So it seemed like tinsel town at night and I really had the impression The Gateway can be likened to Glorietta and Greenbelt. I got a reality check, however, when, as I exited the parking lot and inquired of my parking fee, I got a blunt reply: "Bente!"
