Favorite thing: If you'll be in Dumaguete or other parts of Negros Oriental, take a look at this website: http://www.dumagueteinfo.com/ It has lots of information that will help you think about your trip about your trip to the region. It's not totally comprensive, and some of it is distracting / not useful, but there are good hotel links and generally unbiased information.

Fondest memory: Public transportation in Dumaguete is limited. Since the resort we stayed in is far from the city we have to pay P1000 for pickup and another P1000 for the return trip to the resort.
If you want to enjoy the nightlife in the city I suggest that you spend one night there. You can choose from a lot of good accomodations Dumaguete offers. Bethel for example is situated near Rizal Ave and is near the local pubs and bars.

Favorite thing: A belfry replica building is built at the southern end of the Rizal Blvd. Baywalk aptly named Cafe Turismo. It arouses any visitor's curiousity why this is not in the map of historical sites. The truth is, this is actually the Tourist Information Center of Dumaguete.

Favorite thing: Cebuano/Visayan is the biggest dialect in the Philippines, and the main dialect used in Dumaguete. Most, if not all, Dumaguete locals speak and understand English and Tagalog. However, speaking those languages signal that you are not from the city.
Common phrases include:
Kamusta- Hello
Maayo ra/ May'ra - I'm fine
Maayong buntag/hapon/gabi-i- Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening
Salamat - Thank you
Pila ni - How much?
Asa ang ____? - Where is the___?
