Hi Marketman:
I would be ordering Zubulight for pick up on August 6, 2011. I would be bringing this back to manila and my flight is scheduled for 1900H of the same day.

Hope you can advise on the ideal time and location for the pick up.

Thanks

beth, thanks for your feedback. Cebu lechons do tend to be a bit saltier than those from Luzon, however, at Zubuchon we use no MSG at all. It’s possible a section of skin got more than its share of salt sprinkled on, but the measures of salt to weight of pig are standardized. Thank you.

Hi MM, its our 35 anniversary yesterday so we try your lechon. We would enjoy more of it, kung di sana napa-alat ang timpla ng skin. Try to lessen the salt please so that i can eat more of your lechon next time and for our health too.

TRO1017, the business was set up by my crew in Cebu, where they all live. Setting up in Manila will entail finding a large enough property where we can roast, a full slaughterhouse license/facility, and a prep kitchen, delivery vans, etc. We haven’t been able to fully meet demand in Cebu yet, so Manila isn’t even on the radar yet. :)

Hi, Market Man. Why don’t you have a store in Manila? 3 of my nephews are graduating this March, thinking of sending one for my family back home :)

Jacq, thank you for your order and comments. I am happy to hear you were happy with the Zubuchon you received. We had a few lechons on a particular flight on Christmas day that seem to have been worse for wear in transit. I am thrilled that you felt it was good value as well. For some reason, we have taken on a totally premium perception among consumers, despite the fact that our retail lechon in Cebu is just PHP450 a kilo and that of the biggest producer who have an outlet at the SM mall charge PHP440 a kilo… :) Also, folks ordering whole lechons should get in the habit of WEIGHING what arrives in their homes, figuring out the effective per kilo cost. On that front, we are confident Zubuchon is very competitive. Thanks again for your order and comments.

Finally! I was able to taste the “infamous” Zubuchon, and true to MM’s promise…it’s the BEST lechon EVER! The lechon’s skin was still crispy and I love the fact that this Cebu-made lechon is the leanest, among all the other Lechon Cebu that we have tried, incomparable…if we are talking about lechons from Manila!

I couldn’t complain with the price, the Zubuchon that I got was competitively priced, came in a very decent packaging, and the aroma of all the stuffings inside, made everyone ask for more! I put some of those precious stuffing in a bowl,mixed them with vinegar, and used it as our dipping sauce..wow..HEAVEN!
The idea of using rosemary, bell peppers, onions, crushed garlic, lemongrass, peppercorns and other herbs and spices made it more special, and I love the fact that this Zubuchon is well-priced despite the fact that it was meticulously prepared, well-seasoned, and carefully wrapped and sent to PAL cargo, to ensure that it will reach our dining table in the most delectable manner! GOURMET lechon is Zubuchon, it is so YUMMY that I am encouraging every Pinoy to give it a try, this is the BEST lechon ever !

I can’t imagine how good it is if If we can have it fresh off the coals!

I am very satisfied and will definitely order again, I will make sure that Zubuchon will be our main dish on my son’s 1st birthday party!

Lami kaayo ang Zubuchon nimo MM! Daghang Salamat, otro pohon na sad!
