Roast suckling pig x 2, one for dinner, the other for media noche (midnight)

Usually we don't even have one. This year (because we weren't complete for Christmas???) we ended up with two.


On the left all chopped up was regular lechon from Kamayan. On the right is Cebu lechon from Manong's.


After trying them both I can say that both are pretty good :) neither has much meat but that worked out pretty well because we're only three families, and really it's the crispy skin people look forward to.

It was one of the best things I ate in 2012. Other best things: chilled hispi cabbage with sunflower mayonnaise, preserved stinky tofu (a gift from [personal profile] pulchritude) with plain rice, yoğurtlu shish kebab with Turkish bread.
