It is another Branch of the Cebu based Restaurant Chain operating there since 1991.



First it has to be said that it is more a Restaurant than a café, second Café Laguna is serving only Filipino Food; so if you expect a imported Beef Steak for 255 peso you might be disappointed.



Anyway, Café Laguna’s interior is top notch for Dumaguete (for my personal taste a bit too light, so I was cheating with the pictures a little bit). Everything was pre-produced in Cebu and Luzon and assembled here in Dumaguete. The aircon was working and the seating comfortable.



The Staff is very friendly in a professional way. All of them received their training for several weeks in Cebu’s Café Laguna Outlets.
I was there with Rechel and we ordered Kinilaw Tangigue and Crispy Crablets for our Pampagana (appetizer) and Beef Tenderloin steak a la Popre and Buttered Chicken, rice and coke light. The menu is quite big and one should be able to find more than one dish fitting his/her taste. The main dishes are between 180 and 300 peso



A typical philippino way is that all dishes come at the same time (or when ready), so if you want your starters first, like the name might appear to some, you should order your main dish when the appetizer is served.
All four dishes were well sized portions and priced reasonable. I actually (other than I read on another thread) liked the Steak a la Popre a lot and the Chicken were not just skin and bones. It was not fried to death and still juicy meat. Maybe a kind of dip should be served with it.



I would certainly like to have some paper-tissues, pepper. salt, etc. as a standard on the table, because I want to start eating when my dish arrives hot and not asking and waiting another few minutes.

To sum it somehow up, I would describe Café Laguna as a kind of Filipino fine dining and a positive addition to the local restaurant scene. Perfect for introducing first time visitors to local cuisine before throwing them into a street kitchen.

cheers

PHILSTAR

This makes me wonder why more of one type of foreigner gets killed than another type? MANILA, Philippines - The Philippine National Police (PNP) Task Force Usig said yesterday a German hotel executive shot dead in Makati City last June 17 is the 95th foreigner killed in the country since January 2009.

Police will invite for questioning the eight reported girlfriends of Sergio Mazza, 38, a German hotel executive who was killed as he was walking to work Thursday morning.

The task force was created in May 2006 to investigate the killings of journalists, but in January 2009, President Arroyo expanded the scope of task force’s mandate and included the fatal attacks on foreigners.

Of the 95 cases of slain foreigners, 30 cases or 32 percent are pending with the prosecutor’s office or with appropriate courts and 65 cases or 68 percent are still under investigation.

Chief Superintendent Henry Libay of the Task Force Usig said Indian nationals topped the list with 29 victims followed by Korean nationals with 15 victims.

Libay said American nationals ranked third with 14 victims. The PNP also recorded the killing of nine Germans, eight Japanese nationals, six British, four Chinese, three Canadian, three Australian, two French, two Finnish, and one Norwegian, Dutch, Taiwanese, Pakistan, Iranian, Malaysian, Spanish, Slovenian and Swiss national.

Task Force Usig said Region 3 and Metro Manila registered the highest number of foreigners killed while there were no foreigners reported killed in Regions 8, 9, 12 and Cordillera.

The PNP said of the 30 cases that have been filed, four are on trial, one is considered closed and 25 cases are still pending with the prosecutor’s office.

There were 59 identified suspects involved in death of foreigners, 37 of whom were arrested, two already dead, two have surrendered while 18 are still at large but without a warrant of arrest. ]]> General Chat MalmoMan http://www.dumagueteinfo.com/board/showthread.php?t=6936 The law of gravity http://www.dumagueteinfo.com/board/showthread.php?t=6931&goto=newpost Thu, 02 Sep 2010 11:33:12 GMT I have just returned from a visit to the Port of Dumaguete to purchase a fast craft ticket for next week.

In a berth I notice a vessel of our favourite line, renowned for drowning its passengers, hundreda at a time, with seeming impunity. On this occasion the Princess of the Caribbean was discharging 20 foot containers. As I exited the port on foot, a truck bearing a twenty footer on the middle of its flatdeck trailer stopped beside me.

I took the opportunity to confirm by visual inspection what I had long suspected. There was absolutely nothing holding the container in place save the force of gravity! All four corner indents were empty! How often have YOU been following one of these in traffic? The driver needs to stop suddenly and hits the brakes.

What happens? The load shifts forward. Any other force at play could spill the trailer into your path. Duhh!

In a country where ships sink because they are unseaworthy or sail without regard to the weather, busses plummet suddenly off cliffs and cops . . . .


Oh well you get the idea. Do we really need another entirely preventable hazard to risk our lives?

Is the only regulation governing carriers the LAW OF GRAVITY? ]]> Dumaguete City davfitz http://www.dumagueteinfo.com/board/showthread.php?t=6931 <![CDATA[Congratulations Patrick & Crislyn]]> http://www.dumagueteinfo.com/board/showthread.php?t=6930&goto=newpost Thu, 02 Sep 2010 10:33:59 GMT Congratulations from the whole DI Team.

He asked me to help find a home for his healthy 3 yr old intact male Rottweiler. I have had him here at my place for a few hours now.

I did not previously know this dog and have 2 toddlers and an infant so, in order to check his temperament, roughed him up pretty good(pushed, pulled, tackled, head locked, choked, lifted and threw him by the folds of his skin) all without hurting him--I could never get away with this with my own 2 Rottweilers.

I can honestly say that he has shown no aggression whatsoever towards us and has a very good disposition. I feel that will quickly bond with new owners and will make a great guard dog.

He is aggressive towards CATS.

Free to go to a good home.

Note: If you're old and grouchy or don't like large dogs or have nothing to do all day that is fine. But please don't clutter or crap on other peoples threads.
