Kalami Cebu! - A Gastronomic Guide to Cebu

For months, I have been curious about this place in Lahug that has a logo that reminds me of Coca-Cola.  I knew that it is some sort of a cafe, but I really cannot find a reason to visit Le Cafe Noir. A few weeks, I finally had a chance to check out the place after having a hearty meal at Shalom Judges and Jireh Genesis Eatery nearby.

I have been passing by Butterbean Desserts・Cafe in Escario and I never really found the time to eat there.  I thought the establishment was all about cookies and brownies. I was wrong. I checked it out last weekend and I ended eating my lunch there. 

Cafes are usually known to be the best places to enjoy some coffee and sweets in a very relaxing setting. This is actually bad for people who are at risk of diabetes or tooth decay. One café in Lahug is making it harder for the sweet tooth to resist as they offer 1-Peso desserts.   1 Peso as in? When was the last time you can buy a delicious cake at 1 peso? To avail of this wonderful deal, all you have to do is buy 1 meal plus a beverage then the dessert is practically FREE.      I accidentally bumped into this promo when I was looking for a decent internet connection because I needed to contact someone via Viber. I ended up at Tazza Cafe and Patisserie in Lahug. Well, it was lunch time anyway so I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and iced coffee.   I was able to enjoy a delicious carrot cake for just 1 peso.

If you ask Cebuanos, what is their favourite dessert shop?

We decided to go to La Marea because it was just a few steps away.  We then ordered some of their best dessert creations. The classic blueberry cheesecake was expectedly good.  The slice is quite generous and it was oozing  with blueberry toppings.  This the famous warm brownie cup.  This La Marea's signature dessert.  The warm brownie cup was such a big hit that other cafes even get from La Marea just to offer this enjoyable treat. This dessert will bring joy to kids and adults. If it is your first time at La Marea, do not forget to order this.  The classic version of the de...

One of the nicest looking cafes in Cebu is Dolce.  Dolce is located in Nivel Hills and it offers a lot of yummy creations that can satisfy any sweet tooth.  It is hard to miss the place, you will pass by Dolce when you are going to Marco Polo Plaza hotel.  It is in the left side when you are coming from the city. Dolce which means sweet in Italian is basically a boutique cafe that boasts of an impressive building structure and elegant interiors.  The place serves coffee, tea, and desserts. They offer their cake in slices or as a mini-cake version.
