Speaking of drones, here’s something a little pricier but seems to be worth the wait :) — httpss://www.lily.camera/

I checked out the blog that Zerho mentioned above. Gyah! My brain hurts just trying to understand her logic.

I want a drone, too!

That vid is awesome!

Charly: because of the music license stuff, no doubt. :(

She was just trying to be literal. Short of ignoring it, excellent calm reply.

Hi Zerho, I left this comment on that blog last night. The internet can be a wonderful thing. But it can also be misleading… I think the posts on this blog from the lechon chronicles to the visit of Mr. Bourdain to the opening of Zubuchon restaurants is a good summary of events. But logic isn’t abundant to some perhaps. I would leave it at that. :)

“You are absolutely correct in your chronology of what occurred. However, I must point out that the recipe used by Zubuchon in all of its stores is EXACTLY the recipe that was served to Mr. Bourdain, and which I posted on my blog months before his visit. And while we NEVER used his comment declaring it the “Best Pig, Ever” until we opened the restaurants, it was ONLY AFTER we checked with Mr. Bourdain’s production staff and Mr. Bourdain himself to request permission that we use HIS KIND QUOTE that he responded within minutes by email to say, absolutely, go ahead and use the quote, it was indeed the “Best Pig, Ever” that he had tasted on his travels. So the lechon you eat at Zubuchon is indeed the same lechon that we fed him on the No Reservations Program.

I also agree that there are several variations of lechons across the archipelago, so very many of them delicious, but I would disagree that lechons whose main flavoring ingredient is a cup or so of MSG in it’s tummy (rather than using other natural and locally grown ingredients) is the way to go. And in the areas you have described eating lechon, the vast majority are made with copious amounts of MSG. But some folks PREFER MSG, I just happen not to. I thank you for mentioning Zubuchon in your post and hope you enjoy many more lechons in the future!”
