The former Cafe Noriter moved to this location just across the street [the former Avon Bldg., Sta. Catalina St.]; the menu has been updated and the rebranded store looks as hip as any cafe in Seoul.

Bank Deposits - Cities Outside NCR
The following 44 cities outside Metro Manila have at least 10 billion pesos deposited in their banks as of June 2012. Dumaguete is no. 22 but there's a good chance it will outgrow some cities because of its fast growth rate. Note that all the cities that rank higher than us are either regional economic hubs, capital cities of large provinces (those with 2 to 4 million residents) or industrial cities within the Greater Manila conurbation. Our city serves as the hub of just 1.3 million people (Negros Oriental, Siquijor and a few towns in southern Cebu), way below the market size of any of the higher-ranking cities.
