It’s almost impossible to fully repay a mother’s love, but a heartfelt attempt or two will never go by unappreciated. Even if she’ll never say so, never let that stop you from trying.
Let her fantasies of undisturbed relaxation and indulgence come to life at the City of Dreams.
FEAST: Remember the days when mom was always up before the sun was up to make you lunch everyday for school? Turn the tables and let her be the one to feast.
