- In this video, we take you on a journey to discover the beautiful city of Dumaguete, located in the Philippines.
Our day begins with a stop at Adobo Go, where we indulge in some mouth-watering and delicious local cuisine. From there, we head to Quezon Park, a beautiful green space in the heart of the city.
Next up, we visit the St. Catherine of Alexandria Cathedral, a stunning piece of architecture that is steeped in history and tradition.
After our visit to the cathedral, we take a moment to relax and rejuvenate with a foot massage from one of the many skilled practitioners in the area.
Our next stop is Robinsons Mall, a bustling shopping center where we browse the many stores and indulge in some retail therapy. Finally, we end our day with a relaxing stroll along Rizal Boulevard, taking in the beautiful sunset and enjoying the lively atmosphere of this vibrant city.
Overall, our day in Dumaguete was full of adventure, culture, and delicious food. We hope you enjoy watching our journey and are inspired to plan your own trip to this wonderful destination. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more travel videos!

I agree that both nationalities often look similar. I have met many lovely people in both countries.

I miss by Foot reflexes and massages. You guys are doing it right. Traveling and enjoying life. Thats how it should be. :)
We are have a great time. Love the Philipines and the people we have met here.
Hello im watching your channel im from Dumaguete but i leave in Canada.
Hello. How was your time in Dumaguete?
since you're on the Adobo hunt. Try Humba in Cebu it's another adobo ish dish but very nice.
Thank you. I tried humba in Bohol and it was very tasty.
Adobo has different versions depending on the region. That particular adobo is the drier version. I prefer the saucy one which I grew up with. Most “Karenderia” (street side restaurants) in Cebu has adobo. Higher end restaurants has definitely some adobo like Cafe Laguna in Ayala, Majestic Restaurant in Ayala and SM City. Now I miss Cebu.
It's so delicious. We also like humba. I'm the same as you and enjoy some sauce:-)
You speak like a journalist i adore the way you explain and talk to the locals! Enjoy your stay and more videos to come!
Thank you Mang. I love meeting local people. So far I've met many lovely and friendly people. It has made my time here so enjoyable and memorable.
I had been planning a move to the PH prior to the "global Medical emergency". Needless to say, I was delayed by several years. After bouncing to 8 different countries (mostly SE Asia) while PH laws relaxed I have finally made it here. I had a much different strategy than most gringos. I opted to head north to cooler climates and avoid all the Expat BS. I’m in a small town now where I am THE ONLY GRINGO and have been treated like a king. And I got a nice country (providence) girl that is incredible. So If cooler temperatures (78 today/rest of PH 97+) head north, but bring a positive open mind and please MIND YOUR MANNERS, we are all guest here, bad manners affects us all.
Thanks for sharing your expeirnce. You sound happy. ;-)
Yeah, hope you can visit next time Baguio City Andrew and Jerry!!!
@@janice6995 I was there last weekend. Moving there in 7 days!
@@bigmikessenioradventures Whoa! Hope you have lots of fun and get to fully enjoy the warmth of the locals!
I feel like I’m vacationing with you guys. If you have more time, I suggest you also visit Batanes, which is in north Luzon. It’s beautiful there.
That's lovely of you to say that. We are looking forward to exploring Luzon as soon as we can. ;-)
12:50 I like the place you saw at 22:58 a bit better - a blind people organisation has some very skilled people doing massages there
Thank you for your recommendation I'll try another massage for the next time when I visit Dumaquete.
Im your new subs from the most beautiful country in the world philippines
Thank you for subscribing and sending a message. Which part of the country are you from?
Hi Sir , u should visit the town og Valencia. They have sunday market. Spend ur day at d mountain of hot spring.. and hung out in d Red Rock resort.
Thanks. I'll google it and fond out more info.:-
Theres so many expats in Dumaguete, Its a peaceful place to chill or you can go to Apo Island nearby for a quick scuba diving with turtles:) @ 2:26 That house is kinda cool and elegant is it? 🍷
Oh I'd love to visit Apo island. Yes that house is beautiful.:-)
why is there so many expats there? ive noticed this in many videos
Love Duma 👍
Me too Florence. To be honest I've loved everywhere that I;ve visited to far.
@@AlwaysonaJourney Enjoy the Philippines guys🙏
For almost every town, we have a thing called Poblacion where you can see the close proximity of a Church, Town Hall, and a Park. Sometimes the market too.
Oh thank you. That's interesting and good to know.
The Americans introduced English, from then on Filipinos speak English as well. English subject is included in the curriculum as early as pre school. Also we speak Taglish meaning Tagalog and English as well as in other dialects so they speak Cebuano English. There were also American teachers before that was at least what my uncle told me, that was way way back haha 😄 Enjoyed watching you guys! ❤
Oh interesting to know. Thanks Aimee. Taglish sounds cool. :-)
@@AlwaysonaJourney yes I am more comfortable speaking that way haha 😄
No, just a little bit of correction, English was introduced during the American Colonial period but the BRITISH who arrived in 1762 were the ones to introduce english to the filipinos, not the Americans
@@velky_reeds thanks seems like i don't know history that well
I didn't went there next time when I come home again I will going to this place
We went twice and will definitely go again at the end of May when we go back there.
⭐️⭐️⭐️ in Manila, I think Pork Adobo is nice and affordable at Goto Tendon.
Oh really. I'll make a note of that for my next visit. Thanks.
Panaad festival, a cultural, food celebration is happening in the other major city of Negros island, Bacolod city, till Sunday for the last, an all in one cultural show in the other side of the island , enjoy
That sounds great. Sadly we have now left the Philippines. We will come back in June.
In the Philippines we use ENGLISH in school that’s why people here can speak English well. Nowadays Filipinos even speak to their children in English at home usually the upper class citizens because they want their children to be well literate English speaking, but in Manila and other parts of Luzon region they use Tagalog, too. ADOBO is very common in every restaurant in the Philippines so you can find it anywhere, even here in California is available in Filipino restaurants.
Thanks for this information. ;-0
I think there’s not much of a restaurants that sells adobo here in ph. Tho you might find this mostly in karinderyas (small roaside food stall resto). Since adobo is a staple filipino food, every household can cook this anytime 😊 so when we eat out we don’t usually order adobo. Enjoy your stay here in PH ☺️
Thank you. That's good to know.
Actually Adobo is just for vloggers. No one ever goes to a restaurant and craves Adobo. You can find adobo in places called Carenderia. But not common in Dumaguete.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for the love. 😘
I hope you tried Sans Rival :-) It has no rival!
Nino. I've just googled this and it sounds delicious. I'ver never tried it yet but definitely will soon. Thank you.
There’s a restaurant in Dumaguete with the same name that has them. That was the reason I asked. Yeah, I hope you get to try! Plus sinigang, that’s another dish vying for the national dish spot with Adobo. Consider Lamb Adobo in Abe in BGC too!
Piccalily you remember that andy
Lol. Yes. I love picallili with corned beef. ;-)
I will cook adobo for you and Jerry ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
That sounds fantastic. Thank you. ;-0
We will be in BKK in August, let us know when you're free, lol 😅😅
@@jerrysinghhkt yes we will cool adobo chicken and pork and lumpia
I love silvanas in dumaguete
Oh I have never heard of it. Is it a restaurant?
Ww love them aswell. We tried them last week. :-)
So that layout of rectangular Park, big old Church on one side, old Municipal bldg across on the other side is the usual Spanish era layout. The around the park will also have the old Mayor’s house and usually large ancestral homes of the rich… smaller towns will still have most of these old structures still in place. So Central Park, Religious power on one side, Political power across on another side and ringed around by homes of important & rich folks…
Oh that's interesting. Thanks for explaining this to us.
Oh! use serving cutlery buddy
I think when a couple eat together the rules are more flexible. We have no problem with this way of eating together. Of course if we were to eat with friends then of course we'd using serving cutlery.
How is Filipino white rice, with salt ? Or it’s plain like no salt added ?
No salt
I really can't suggest a restaurant for adobo bec we hardly go to Filipino restos or if we do, we don't really order adobo bec we always have it at home. But if they are available, we will order crispy adobo FLAKES (which is what i would suggest you have to try). But if in Manila, the Filipino restaurants you have to try are Manam, Your Lokal, Locavore, Mesa and Cafe Juanita.
Or go to Tagaytay and go to any Filipino restaurant that serves good bulalo (another must try).
Excellent. Thanks for this info. It's helpful.
Pad ka pow looks like without egg
I love pad ka pow. Delicious
Looks like its very hot maybe high noon? Please be careful wear a hat and use sun screen. Isn't it summer there? Please be generous with the workers and give them tips. 😊
Thanks for all of your advice. ;-)
@@AlwaysonaJourney Hope you can stay in PH longer? Looking forward to your PH vlogs. Have you got plans to go to El Nido & Coron? Boracay?
The best place to eat adobo is at my house LOL. Not to brag, but I make the best adobo in the country. Credits go to my mom who is in heaven now. She was the one who taught me how to cook adobo and mane other Filipino dishes.
Awww. So sweet. I believe you. If it's your mums recipe I am certain it will be delicious.
Let me tell you this, Andrew, the fact about adobo is that it tastes different depending on where you are in the Philippines, geographically. But the one true thing that any Filipino will tell you is that the best adobo is their mom's adobo.
How are you guys ❤😂🎉😢😢😮😮😅😊
We are good. Thank you. How about you? ;-)
@Always on a Journey I'm good and baked
Philippines colonize by America gor more than 50 years ❤
Thank you.
Andrew, I'm Filipino but had not and will not eat balut 🥴. I'm not a picky eater, but there is no way I would eat balut 😂
I completely agree with you. Jerry is curious but for me absolutely not.
Please try to eat balot Andrew and Jerry and look for a Muslim food in Cebu or local street food because you tired lechon already
I'm scared to try balot. I will leave it to Jerry. ;-)
I will definitely try it next time when I get back to Philippines. 😂 For sure😊
Beer!!?"'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We rarely drink alcohol.
I'd like to try Tuba one day when I get back.
Dumaguete is a little western city because it's a retirement island so many retirees in there.😁😁😁
I can see why it appeals to so many retirees. It's lovely.
Not being funny andy the piece in the foot massage what's going on in shorts check out cheers
My phone and wallet were in my shorts pockets.
@@AlwaysonaJourney ok Andy have lovely day
@@robertbest4398 Thank you and you. ;-)
If you can have Binalot in Manila, they have good Adobo. It comes with a tomato and salted egg. Really adobo should be paired with rice.
If you are ok with sour flavor, try Sinigang. It might shock you the first time.
Thank you. I love sour so sinigang sounds very interesting.
Kate Winslet made a movie about adobo and Steve Jobs loves adobo. Is this guy taking naivety to another level or what? HAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm shocked anyone would even think I was being serious. Come on. It was a little bit of fun in relation to the pictures on the wall in the restaurant.
Adobo is the last thing you should care to eat when visiting Dumaguete. No one cares about Adobo. Adobo vs. CHICKEN inato and Adobo is knocked out in the first round. Adobo vs. HUMBA, then the adobo is fed to a siberian husky or labrador.
Lol..Thanks for your comment. I've since tried humba and it's delicious. We need to try chicken inato now. However we really enjoyed the adobo in Dumaguete and would definitely eat at the same restaurant again.
@@AlwaysonaJourney i had Humba in Cebu and it was the worst pork dish ever. Apparently, even Humba have no character. Because Humba is okay in Dumaguete. But it just looks like Adobo. There is an Adobo restaurant in DumAGUETE, Adobo Go. First of all there is no such thing as Adobo restaurants. So it is a good place for vloggers. I didnt get to eat there, i was so full then.
Ww have been to Adobo Go three times and enjoyed it. :-)
get his face off the screen and show the city
Thanks for leaving us a comment.
