Lab-as


they keep live fish, crabs, oysters and lobsters in aquariums so you can
 enjoy them as fresh as possible





these paintings are works of local artists, on display this week in many galleries,
colleges and restaurants around the city as part of a Visayas-wide arts expo







baked oysters with cheese

         Lab-as (which means 'fresh' in Cebuano) is a culinary institution in Dumaguete. It's a laidback seaside restaurant that serves some of the freshest seafood in town. They source their fish, squid, crabs and shellfish mostly from the nearby cities of Bais and Bayawan, the province's most productive fishing areas. One of their top offerings is Dumaguete Express which is raw fish cubes in a spicy coconut-based sauce topped with chopped grilled pork. What I like best though is their juicy baked oysters, tomato seafood bouillabaisse and crispy pata (boiled and deep-fried pork leg).

Ceres RORO Port






       Vallacar Transit, the operator of Ceres Buses, is constructing its own RORO (roll-on, roll-of) port and terminal just outside the city in Brgy. Ajong, Sibulan. This facility will serve the growing Negros to Mindanao (Zamboanga Peninsula) route.
