Casablanca

Dumaguete


Casablanca is known primarily for its hearty Austrian dishes such as succulent roast pork and Wiener schnitzel, and as an outdoor hang-out spot for old-timer expats. Sit on the patio as the unappealing dining room has heavy furniture and carpeting. Sesame-seared tuna with salsa makes a fine appetiser, and there are good lunchtime sandwich options plus delicious eggplant dishes for vegetarians.
