Oh finally! We now have the opportunity to be part of the mutiny. I encourage all of you to leave the comfort of your homes and be involved. What?!

Mutiny is synonymous to rebellion, revolt, insubordination or sedition. But this is not what I am talking about. PMAers from class 95 and some civilians came up with this bar called MUTINY located along Macapagal blvd in Paranaque City. According to the owners, it is the place to “Chillax” (Chill and Relax).

The place was introduced to me (and the rest of my cousins who were able to come last Saturday-March 29) by David. We were eight that night, three of whom are PMA graduates. (Zandro Alvez – class 95, Ryan Cayton – class 04 and David Cayton – class 07). Only during reunions do I come to realize that I am surrounded with military relatives. My grandfather and all of my four uncles (my mom’s brothers) are in the army. My grandfather (obviously) and 2 uncles are now retired (the retired general is now acting as Security Consultant at Camp John Hay) and 2 are still active (one currently a brigadier general). Whew! Want a piece of me? Haha! A number of cousins, who are now part of the third generation, are making sure that the tradition goes on. It should have been me who represented the Cayton-Dizon family because my mom was convincing me to enter PMA in 1995. Oh puhlease…

So what did we order then? As we were scanning their menu, I can’t help but look first at the price of their beer. Their smb light costs 35 per bottle, a bit more pricy than the other bars but still within the acceptable range. And oh! Considering that every 1 peso of it goes to charity, not bad at all. Hmmm… the more you drink beer, the more money you give to the poor? (nice!) My cousins and I agreed on ordering from their Unit Beer-busting treats. It was the SQUAD which caught our attention. Was it because it was the cheapest? Haha! Not really, the other selections were too much for us to consume. SQUAD costs Php1,600 and this includes 1 case of beer, Nachos, Boodler’s treat (hotdogs, squid balls, fried potatoes and nuts), Crispy Chicken, Sizzling sisig, and few thin slices of sashimi. Slurp!

More than the place and the SQUAD, I enjoyed the company of my cousins. To think that we were outnumbered by the boys department, I was thinking what more if more of the girls department were there that night? So, calling the girls department of CaySer headed by Ate Mayen… let’s plan for the next MUTINY.
