This is why..
I am only giving up beef for Lent and not pork.
AnthonyBourdain just said it...that the lechon he ate in Cebu was the best pig EVER! If you are a regular viewer of his show NoReservations, it is a known fact how much he loves pig and beer. So for him to declare that in his show is quite the feat. In fact, he just ranked the Philippines pig as #1 in his hierarchy of pork.
And speaking of pig? It can now be said that of all the whole roasted pigs I've had all over the world, the slow roasted lechon I had on Cebu was the best. This puts the standings in the Hierarchy of Pork as follows:
#1. Philippines
#2. Bali
#3. Puerto Rico
I still have 35 minutes to go before "No Reservations-Philippines" airs but no way am I changing the channel. I cannot wait to see his take on his trip there. This episode was a long time coming and I am glad he went. Not only did he go but he has taken a great interest in it and hopefully more people will do the same. Filipinos know that our cuisine is so much more than just the balut. Now because of his show, AnthonyBourdain has proven that this indeed is true.
