I recently flew with some friends to Cebu to join a Dive Safari- a scuba diving trip that took us to various underwater sites off Cebu, Bohol, and Dumaguete. The diving was fantastic, and the food, just as great.
One of the restaurants we went to was called Laguna Garden Cafe. We went there after all our diving was done, and we were just spending some time around Cebu City. The cafe served traditional Filipino food, and frankly, we wanted to order everything on the menu (and very nearly did). When we got there, it was early enough to have breakfast. So we ordered Pandesal with Kesong Puti, and Suman, Mangga, at Tsokolate (among other things).

We enjoyed the food so much that we stayed there long enough to have lunch. I ordered Baked Scallops, while my friends ordered various dishes with rice. Looking at our second round of orders, you wouldn't suspect that we all just had breakfast a few minutes earlier.

We stayed in the restaurant for quite some time, and it wasn't just because the food was good. The ambience was also perfect for whiling away time with friends. The lighting, the comfortable chairs, and the decor all contributed to a very enjoyable, leisurely, and pretty long meal.
I want to go back to Cebu soon, for the diving, and the dining.
