Your visit in Dumaguete would not be complete if you can’t go around the city for some awesome food stops that are sure to make super delicious memories for any traveler. There isn’t a food joint here you won’t appreciate. If you are in a budget, there are some restaurants around the City that offers delicious but inexpensive food.

Here’s a list of some famous Restaurants in Dumaguete with an affordable menu:

Bossing’s Tempura

Bossing Tempura in Dumaguete City

Bossing Tempura

Erase whatever you have in mind, because Dumaguete’s Tempura is not the deep-fried shrimp dish of the Japanese. Tempura is very similar to Kikiam. Major difference is its length and taste. It’s the most popular street food in Dumaguete City. Bossing’s Tempura is located inside in Silliman University. And now, there are several branches around the City. There are several stores selling tempura but this place is mostly visited because of their special dip numbered zero to five. The number corresponds to the level of spiciness. Zero being the sweetest and five the flaming hot one. For only 4 peso each piece of tempura, you can already enjoy eating a lot.

Bading’s Halo-Halo

Bading's Halo-Halo

Bading’s Halo-Halo

This can be found inside the Dumaguete Public Market. They have a very unique taste of halo-halo. Bading’s halo-halo is known for serving halo-halo with sweetness and creamy goodness. For only 25 pesos, you can enjoy their halo-halo.

Painit sa Palengke

Budbod at Public Market in Dumaguete City

Public Market

Bodbod is Negors Oriental’s version of Suman. Paired with a cup of hot chocolate, Budbod becomes the star in every Negrense’s breakfast table. Puto is also available, which is sticky rice scooped in a cup. Every morning here in Dumaguete City, locals gather at the public market to kick start their day with a helping of Bodbod. For the amount range of 12-20 pesos, you can enjoy a good breakfast.

Kwek-Kwek Street Food (Deep Fried Battered Quail Eggs)

Deep fried quail eggs in Dumaguete City

Deep Fried Quail Eggs

Dumaguete has a lot of street foods around the area. Mostly near the schools and universities. Some vendors usually transfer from one place to another because they use their bicycles for transportation. The most delicious kwek-kwek can be found near Macias Sports Complex, everyday around 4-7pm. The kwek-kwek is only 4 pesos a piece.

Neva’s Pizza

Inexpensive Pizza at Nevis

Kuripot Nevis Pizza

“Kuripot” is the best word to describe Neva’s Pizza in Dumaguete. Not that the owner’s a cheapskate, but their pizzas could go as low as 99 pesos. They also have regular pizzas for 140 pesos which is also still affordable. The distinction of their “kuripot” version is that they use cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella. Best of all its “pugon” baked and they deliver within Dumaguete City area. Neva’s Pizza is a local restaurant only located in Dumaguete City. They also serve great a pasta dishes and drinks.

Sans Rival Cake and Pastries and Sans Rival Bistro

Sans Rival in Dumaguete City

Sylvanas and Sans Rival

Sans Rival is located here in Dumaguete City near the Boulevard area. This restaurant can only be found here in Dumaguete and not in other places.  Sans Rival is well known for their famous golden-disk shaped sylvanas. Every bite of these creamy butter goodies brings you to heaven. They also have chocolate flavor. And they also have their own delicacy named as Dumaguete’s best Sans Rival.

For only 15 pesos each, you can taste this sweet treat. They also sell by box at 125 with 10 pieces. They always have a lot of orders since tourist would usually order dozens. Their restaurant full almost everyday because they also offer other great cakes and foods. They serve lunch meals, desserts and pasta as well. I highly recommend that you try their spaghetti; it’s divine. Single serve is just 38 pesos. This is located near the boulevard.

Here are some of the city’s finest pastry houses that your tastebuds will sure to love but your weighing scale wont! Devour with utmost caution.

Breadworth

Lee Plaza and Hypermart

Breadworth is making really good unsweetened bread, wheat rolls, sandwich bread and a host of different smaller breads.

The specialty of Breadworth is the crack’de-sal it is like the Filipino pandesal but with less water so the crustis thicker and more crispy. Make sure you check the baking scheule what time these crackdesals are finished because they sell out really fast.

ANA MARIA BAKESHOP

Hibbard Avenue, Dumaguete City

What began as a small hobby turned into a full time business for the proprietor of Ana Maria Bakeshop. For someone who really loved to cook and bake, she started out accepting orders from family and friends. Soon, more and more requests were coming in and before she even knew it, her kitchen was already getting too small for her growing business.

Ana Maria’s specialty is the Chocolate Cookie Monster cake, a super rich moist chocolate that simply melts in your mouth. Others swear by their chocolate fudge bars and nangka bars, both of which can be bought by piece or pack. Ana Maria also accepts orders for birthday and wedding cakes and cakes for other occassions. Choose from a huge catalogue of the classical or the trendy.

You can visit Ana Maria at any of these four branches:

SANS RIVAL PASTRY SHOP
Rizal Boulevard, Dumaguete City

With the signature stripes blue and white color reminiscent of French sidewalk cafes, Sans Rival is a booming little big business that has been around for some 25 years.. The restaurant area appears small but sales amount to a staggering 5-figure amount thanks to its loyal staff and many patrons. You will be surprised to know that most of the staff has been with them since the very beginning.

Sans Rival also serves snacks and short orders like spaghetti and hamburger that has a very home cooked flavor. They also have a variety of coffee brews and flavors; you can smell its wonderful aroma at once upon entering its double glass doors. The interior is very daintily made up and is a very cozy setting for perking up with a cup of hot coffee and having your favorite dessert to match.

The ever famous commercial cake and pastry chain in the Philippines is now here in Dumaguete! When shopping in the city district, Goldilocks is right across Lee Super Plaza so you might want to drop in for a taste of their tempting display of sweets. They offer quite many options.

If what you need is a place the offers the comforts and facilities of a large resort but has the feel of a small relaxed resort then Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort is the place for you.

Located 20 minutes south of Dumaguete, Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort has six standard and two deluxe rooms and therefore offers the comforts and facilities of a large resort but is small enough to give you the attention you need.  Just a few meters from your room you will find a lagoon pool with a beautiful waterfall. Or if you would prefer you can go for dip in the resort beach.

The main focus of Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort is diving.  They have a dedicated team of Instructors and dive guides available to help plan and guide you around the fantastic dives around Dumaguete’s coasts.  The local dive sites near the resort are varied and fascinating.  With the area fast becoming the place for macro enthusiasts and Apo Island, a world famous coral sanctuary only 45 minutes away, Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort is perfectly positioned to take advantage of all that the Coral Triangle has to offer.

Mike and his team of dive guides and Instructors between them have well over 50 years of experience under water.  The resort offers full range of PADI scuba diving training from beginners to divemaster level.

If you fancy a day on dry land there are plenty of places around Dumaguete and Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort can arrange tours such as dolphin watching in Bais City, a trip to the Casaroro falls or the Mabinay caves. When you get back from a day of diving or sightseeing, the resort’s bar and restaurant is ready to serve you a cold beer or a wide selection of food with an American and Mexican influence.

Mikes Beach Resort in Dauin

Mike, who hails from the San Francisco Bay Area, and his wife Joe Ann opened their Beach Resort with one goal in mind; and that was to provide not only a great place to stay but keep a friendly, relaxed family oriented place for both divers and tourists to Dumaguete. They have two children, JM and Miley Kate, who you will meet when you stay at the resort as they welcome you to their extended family.

Each and every guest who has stayed at Mike’s Dauin Beach Resort comes away knowing they have stayed somewhere truly special and are always welcome back as cherished guests (Check out www.tripadvisor.com on line for excellent reviews). If you are looking for the perfect mix of a beach resort with the attentive care of a small resort, this is the place for you.

Why choose Atlantis?

Well, first of all, the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete has thousands of offers to cater to one’s individual tastes. It has the best of everything, and this is what makes it a most-frequented site for both tourists and other Filipino residents.

To give you more detailed information about the things that you can experience within its luxurious, and yet, native features, here are some pertinent things to remember about the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete:

Where is Atlantis Dive Resort?

Situated near local diving islands like Apo and Siquijor, the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete is an eco-resort that most divers, and those who like other water sports, truly enjoy. A long stretch of golden sand (particularly, ranging about 1.5 in kilometers) houses its facilities.

Amenities of Atlantis:

If you would be choosing room accommodations, there’s a wide choice of locations that you can decide on.

All in all, the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete holds thirty-six (36) rooms – in deluxe or suite (family) room styles.

Some of them are located with a ready access to the beachfront. Others are near the swimming pool area.

There is also a handful that can be found within the tropical display of beautiful plants and trees in different sizes and varieties where the resort’s famous Honeymoon Hut also resides.

Within the homey interiors of the rooms of the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete, guests like you and your family can enjoy a refrigerated mini bar, cable TV, a patio or balcony area where resting pleasure can be garnered by sitting comfortably on the woven hammocks, beautifully crafted native furniture, climate-controlled air conditioning, and other amenities.

Diving with Atlantis Dive Resort:

As mentioned, diving and other water activities are one of the great things that you can do if you visit the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete.

Aside from these water sports, there are also jungle excursions, hiking trips, and cave exploration activities for the more adventurous guests.

If you do not wish to partake of these activities, you may choose to laze around the pool or go sunbathing instead. Or, you may leisurely walk to Toko’s restaurant and experience fine dining at its best.

No matter what you choose to do or where you want your room to be in, the employees of the Atlantis Resort in Dumaguete are ready to help you with your desires. Elegant and beautiful, visiting this place would prove to be a truly worthy experience.
