Best Posts in Thread: REAL FOOD & BEER - Just can't believe it

Hardly. Food is a minor concern of mine. I concern myself more with the price-serving size ratio. I am familiar with Casablanca and they are one of the better, and more upscale, restaurants in Dumaguete. They might seem more expensive but once you compare the serving size to the price you are getting a pretty good deal....plus some pretty good food. I think the owner might have went with the Spanish name because of the Philippines historical ties to the Spanish....and the building's design reflects that of Spanish heritage....and it's "kind of" white. Many of the dishes on the menu are Austrian/German so he does serve quite a few of the dishes you would think he specializes in. Most all popular restaurants in Dumaguete serve both Western and Filipino food (it is necessary if you want to attract the locals....which you need to have to make any real money).

 

Casablanca runs a pretty popular restaurant and serves some good food. They have been around for quite some time as well. Just because the guy is German doesn't mean he can only serve German food or be restricted to German names for the place. Also worth noting that this post is from 2008.
