Good food, good beats, and a good time – three things that describe the grand opening of the City of Gentle People’s newest and hippest hangout. Café Racer Dumaguete opened its doors last July 28, 2016. It is the second branch, the flagship restaurant being in North Reclamation Area, Mandaue City, Cebu. Its jampacked opening night was attended by family, friends, and guests of owner Inaki Yoldi as well as other dining patrons while DJ Arno Van Zanten of Amsterdam delivered the tunes.
When it opened its 154th branch in the City of Gentle People last October 2015, the giant restaurant chain Max’s captured the hearts and taste buds of many Dumaguetenos and Negrenses. Since then, it has become a popular choice of a venue among those celebrating special milestones in their lives. It is now a place where family and friends come together over good food and good times, and that’s why it’s always a feast at Max’s Dumaguete.
Tucked in the heart of Dumaguete City is Ersh Cafe, a quaint, intimate space along Noblefranca Street that is perfect for lazy days and intimate get-togethers. This cozy space almost feels like being inside a warm, vintage New York apartment and will surely steal the hearts of sentimental cafe goers.
Lively Filipino music, rich and boisterous laughter and the clanging of utensils were in perfect harmony during the blessing and grand opening of Lantaw Native Restaurant Dumaguete. It seemed like one giant feast that brought together families from all over the city. And as the night progressed and the moon steadily lit the restaurant’s skyline, the crowd excited to taste the savory native delicacies unique to this new restaurant just kept getting bigger and bigger.
If you’re from Dumaguete or spend a lot of time in the city, you’re bound to know about Gabby’s Bistro. Their flagship restaurant, although located in a primarily residential area quite far from the city proper, is the go-to place of many foodies. It is everywhere on social media. The bistro is modern and fun, and the food, a consistent homerun. It has been dubbed as one of the places to be when visiting the city and with good reason.
