1. Café Sans Rival at The Henry, Dumaguete

Filipinos are known for their sweet tooth, so every local vicinity of the island created its delicacy – mostly sweets.

Dumaguete didn’t miss out on the trend of locals from various parts of the country making their Sweet Delicacies, and so, the renowned “Silvanas” was born. You can’t spell Dumaguete without Silvanas. It originated from Sans Rival, which has various branches across the city, but the most aesthetic one among their branches is Café Sans Rival at the Henry hotel in Dumaguete.  

This aesthetic café features aside from a contemporary landscape that can be visibly seen in its outdoor dining area. It doesn’t miss out on elements that made Dumaguete known, its Spanish-like elements in the area. Dumaguete and Negros, in general, are known to be heavily influenced by Spanish Colonization, which remains even today. So these elements are present in this Café making it #ProudlyNegros. It made this spot aesthetic and is attractive for local and international tourists alike, especially when the history behind will be known. You can check what their café looks like in this video,
