Lechon lover po ba kayo? Ako inaamin ko oo. Kahit alam ko na masama sa health pero minsan lang din naman. Pag may occasions lang... Kaya nga hinahanap hanap ko kung saan ang may masarap na lechon. Then one time inimbita ako ng ka office mate ko sa kasal nya. Ginawa nya akong abay sa kasal. Ganun kasi kami ka close . hehehe. Ang daming handa. Pero puro ulam lang ang kinakain ko. Pag ganoon kasi may occasion ulam lang ang kinakain ko. Pero hindi ko pinapatawad ang lechon . When i taste their lechon, WOW! ang sarap ng lechon at napaka crunchy pa ng balat. Thats the best lechon i've ever taste in my life. Ang sarap talaga. Hanggang sa kinabukasan lechon parin ang kinain ko. Pero mag exercise naman ako. Bago ako bumalik sa manila i ask my friend kung saan nila binili ang lechon. Then he answered sa lechoncebu daw.
Kayo try nyo ang lechon cebu. Im sure magugustuhan nyo ang lasa ng lechoncebu.

Iba ang pagkaluto ng lechon ng mga Caucasians compare here in the Philippines,me pagka-browish at hindi mapula-pula yung skin and the the best part of lechon is the skin.Di ba nilalagyan ng Sprite yung pang-marinate or is it Kok?Mag-iisang taon na ko hindi nakakatikim ng lechon.

@polskie: hahaha that would explain a lot of things about you...hehehe
be sure to eat greens para balance yan kung puro lechon lang eh...gud lak at bka maging bata ka.... batang matigok...you might get atherosclerosis that could lead to stroke... tsk tsk hehe
tinkahbelle & polskie: maybe it's a local practice sa kung san man galing ang mga parents niyo? pa-confirm naman pls. thanks
as for lechon cebu, depende pa rin sa kung sino ang nagluto/ san nabili. kasi one time, ang nabili ng kapatid ko eh sobrang alat.
i dont really like the lechon as is; gusto ko eh pag ginawa nang lechon paksiw kinabukasan. salamat kay mang tomas sa masarap niyang sarsa.
pag piyesta sa probinsiya namin, "bayanihan " ang pagle-lechon, especially kung malaki ang baboy. mula paghabol sa baboy hanggang paghati ng lechon. shifting ang pagikot sa kawayang pinangtuhog. while the pig is roasting, may inuman at huntahan ang mga matatanda sa isang tab, may ligawan at bolahan ang m ga teenagers sa isang sulok, at laruan at awayan ang mga bata all over. dagdag pa ang mga askal sa paligid na nag-aabang.

I for one have switched to lechon manok. I'm watching my weight. However, I treat myself to a serving of lechon kawali once a week para lang hindi ako takamin. Tapos may greens ako lagi o fiber.
I'm still going for Inihaw na Liempo (brings back memories of College).
Lechon Paksiw is also good
My favorite on lechon, though has to be Pritchon where slices are wrapped in thin unleaved bread with a selection of sauces.
What I would like to try is the authentic Spanish version called Cochinillo where the poor little piggy is marinated in olive oil days before and when served, the meat is so tender, you can slive it with a dinner plate
But only in moderation.
(It's so hard to think of food when payday is 3 days away and I'm running on fumes)
Lechon used to be considered a National Dish but the frivolity of Lechon (you kill off a Pig you've fattened for months) for a day's consumption in a town's fiesta that will leave one in debt the rest of the year makes me cringe now when people queue for cheap rice.
That's why they shifted to a humble meat stew involving vinegar and chicken, pork, goat or any available meat that will keep for months and can be recyled in several ways more than Lechon.

i always ask for mang tomas while chowing lechon. it kinda removes the oil in your mouth. plus veggies to act as fat magnet.
do you believe that oil coagulates in our throat? diba were running on a specific body temp? i recieve this txt telling that we should have hot soup when eating fatty foods.just a thought popped.
Sino dito ang mahilig kumain ng balat at taba ng lechon? Kasi di ko talaga ma-appreciate yun. I only eat the meat, then my elder sister eats the fat.
I remember one time, birthday ng nanay ko. People sent 4 lechon baboy sa bahay. Talagang di ako kumain nun. Tinitingnan ko pa lang, parang magkaka-heart attack na ko. I did have fun taking pictures (think lady matador) and chopping like mad.
TENK: Andok's, masarap pa ang gravy.
TORA: there's this resto in Malate, ganun ang specialty nila. di ko lang matandaan ang pangalan; I'll ask around... then treat mo ang mga beerkadets on payday.
CHOMPY: lechon baboy, or all types of lechon?
POLSKIE: not sure bout the hot soup, but there should be an ambulance on stand by.
Liempo (or, Lempyo as my pamangkins call it) tastes better with beer as marinade ingredient. Waaaah!!! Nagugutom ako sa topic!

Kalahating boteng taba ng talangka?! Sheesh. One tablespoon over piping hot rice is enough. Mmm...
May tindahan ng lechon manok malapit sa amin (near Malinta Exit), ansarap ng timpla at maganda ang pagkakaluto. Mas malaki pa siya ng bahagya sa Andok's. Mura pa (P140). XP
Lechon cebu is really the best lechon. The tasty meat and crunchy skin its yummmy. The taste was good. The tender and juicy meat. Hmmm yum yum yum. I love lechon cebu.
