just visited Zubuchon in One Mango Avenue yesterday, two thumbs up to the place and of course the lechon!

Hubby came home from PI recently and we were talking about lechon. He said his cousin told him about a man from Cebu using organic ingredients and pigs not fed with pig growers who “ships” lechons all over the Philippines. I told him it had to be you : )

To err is human, to feast on pig is divine.

To quote Fil-Am comedian Rex Navarette… “That will do Pig, that will do”

I love those shots with the sun rays ‘blessing’ the lechons! Aww, remembering your lola and your mom being there for your lechonan is so apt for the coming Mother’s day! More power to Zubuchon!

Hehe I Googled and the first hit was one of your lechon chronicles some years ago. A commenter said it’s customary for Visayans to baste lechon with Coke, so there’s the answer to my question. I’d just like to say how lovely those photos are and it’s clever of you to use coconut water! It makes your lechon all the more special. :)

Hi MM, it’s my first time to comment here, though I’ve been a lurker for more than a year (I think). Lovely photos! I was in Leyte last week and enjoyed freshly cooked lechon. As I was nibbling on this glorious piece of crispy lechon skin, my cousin mentioned that one of the secrets to getting crispy lechon skin is basting it with Coke. Your lechons look appetizing as is but have you tried it on one of your pigs before? :)
