Buttery, rich, creamy. this is how i describe the best pasalubong to bring home from Dumaguete and for me, they have the best Silvanas in the Country.
I prefer their Silvanas over their Sanrival. Because of the size. Being small the silvanas can be eaten easily by a single person. I usually pair it with fruits. Trust me, its worth hand carrying it and bringing it to people you love. And for 10 per piece of Silvanas, its also very affordable.
Another pasalubong would be the dumaguete Longganisa which looks like the longganisa of Vigan but packing more paprika for the intense maroon color and sweetish flavor compared to the wildy garlicky flavour of the Vigan Longanisa
I wonder if being a city of gentle people makes them more liken by Expats… Because there are a lot and i mean a lot of Foregin retirees in this city. Among the business that these expats are into are into the food and restaurant business. There are a lot of restaurants in this city, especializing in different cuisines.
Among the new ones is this restaurant opened by an Austrian Chef. Named Casa Blanca.
On the Table
Spaetzle with ham and onions-
Spaetzle is a german dish made from dough like noodles but shaped like little dumpling, some chef would just pass the dough thru a strainer with large holes to make the shape. This disih had a mild flavour, the speatzle soaking up the ham and onion flavour. It was good.
Casablanca Steak-
asked to be cooked medium, and it was delivered tome medium. good….The sauce was also very very good , the mashed potato was freshly made and not the powedered form. The eat was very tender and flavourful, the sauce complemented it well
Crepe stuffed with ice cream-
this was just ordinary, nothing to brag about.
Dumaguete City, a province in the Central Visayas also called the City of Gentle People. Its the most Populous City in the region of Negros Oriental.
Lots of restaurants here in the City, Our host gave us the oppurtunity to try one of the better seafood restaurant here. Named Lab-As. Cebuano for FRESH, some would say it is the best seafood restaurant in Dumaguete.
Instead of ordering ala carte, we were presented with a buffet spread of different dishes.




Everything was fresh, everythign was seasoned well, everything was cooked well. No wonder people from dumaguete are proud of this place.
