Best Lechon in and out of town

Marketman's Zubuchon

 

I get a regular supply of Zubuchon. I find it too salty, though. Will try CNT next.

There was a time I recommended Lydia's Lechon over Elar's because the skin stays crispy even after an hour from the time you purchase it. I've tried Lechon Cebu which was brought over by a friend on 3 occasions already. Di nga kasing crispy yun skin by the time it arrives Manila but the taste is very good. No need for sarsa when you eat it. I've also tried Pritchon before. Different but very good as well. They only use lechon de leche size piglets as that is the only type that can fit in their frying "container".

i've decided to re-read that blog entry of a.b. and couldn't believe how many people have left their comments. mga pinoy talaga, fed up with all the bad news coming from the philippines, we pounce on every little bit of good news written about our country; which isn't necessarily bad.

 

on topic, i recently saw once more the pritchon being served at mesa and it looked so appetizingly good. mental note to self- order the pritchon the next time i feel like braving the long wait time and the equally slow service at mesa.

i had this fat-less lechon de leche in discovery shores in boracay, but i think it was only for that particular event. the lechon has very crispy skin and tender meat. no visible fat!

I guess most people would agree that you'd have to head to Cebu for that one.

Dedang's in Iloilo I hope they are still in operation. Tatoy's and Breakthrough comes second. Cebu's lechon for me has this lansa smell due to the onion chive they use as stuffing and it's a bit salty. Iloilo's lechon is stuffed with lemongrass and tamarind leaves so it has this citrus-y smell that works well with the rendered fat from the pig. Sawsawan for me is sinamak tapos piga-an mo ng siling labuyo.

Lechon from Carcar (Cebu) is certified delicious.

There's also this lechon that has sayote inside (aside from garlic and onion leaves); yummy also!
