Falling for Madeleine

There’s a new addition to the quaint culinary scene of Dumaguete City, and that’s Cafe Madeleine. Upon entering this cafe along EJ Blanco Drive, Piapi, you’ll be mesmerized with a unique Victorian accent and a bit of rodeo action on the side. There’s always a new antique furniture to discover, a new piece of art to gush over, and a new story to discover in every angle you look inside the cafe. They also have private function rooms for a more intimate experience when dining at Cafe Madeleine. And just when you think the fun stops there, they also have an internet cafe within the cafe.

If you aren’t taken aback with the interior design, then be blown away with their one of a kind culinary style that’s packed on flavor and portions. Having a big appetite won’t be a problem here; they ensure generous servings for their hungry guests. They have a variety of entrees that will make your taste buds dance with delight!

For starters, the Asian Salad (165 php) is a must try. It’s a big plate of green healthy goodness, and the sweet-sour dressing just brings the entire salad together. Next on our list is their Pasta Carbonara with Pancetta (195 php). This savory plate of pasta in white sauce is to die for, and the hint of Pancetta gives the dish a unique taste. Another must try is their Seranno Ham, Salami and Mozzarella Panini (170 php). These pressed sandwiches are loaded with cheese and ham that will please all sandwich lovers out there.

After enjoying a sumptuous meal, dive in to their refreshing drinks! We recommend their milkshakes, it definitely tastes like a little bit of heaven. But if you’re on the fruity side, they’ve got you covered with their line of juices and slushes. On a hot day, their mint lemonade and fresh orange slush will quench your thirst for a cool drink and take you to an exciting tangy experience with every sip. Since there’s always room for dessert, why don’t you go on ahead and try their Frozen Brazo de Mercedes? This is their delicious take on the classic dessert that will have you spiraling into a place of joy deep, deep down inside. If you wait a little while, they’re still out to expand their menu so expect steaks in the near future.
