‘Shazam!’: Just say the word at DC Café for a powered up meal

We all know that young boy who turns into a powerful superhero by simply shouting “Shazam!”. However, do you know what will happen to regular food if it knows how to scream the same words? Head to DC Super Heroes Café at SM Megamall in Ortigas because we recently discovered 6 new delectable dishes that seem to have been zapped by the same divine powers within Shazam.

For those who are not that familiar with the nitty-gritty details, Shazam is a fictional DC superhero who used to be known as Captain Marvel. He first appeared in comic books in 1939, taking form when 14-year-old Billy Batson shouts the magic words – Shazam! This charming and funny hero will be flying his way to the big screen this April, so better fuel up with yummy food that has great powers.
