It was a week day and my friend Tisay from Hong Kong want to treat us for her birthday. Since we had a couple of working girls in the group we had to eat near their work area.

Bale Dutung
Dining at Claude and Mary Ann Tayag’s Bale Dutung (house of wood) in Pampanga has always been in my food bucket list. It took my cousin’s visit to Manila to make it finally come true.
Pepita’s Kitchen – Hayop na Degustacion

Cebu’s Original Lechon Belly at Mall of Asia

Zubuchon at Mactan Cebu International Airport
Who doesn’t know Marketman’s Zubuchon? Anthony Bourdain declared his lechon “the best pig ever.” I didn’t have enough time to go to their store to try the lechon so I did the next best thing. I bought 1 kilo of frozen lechon at their small space in Mactan Cebu airport. Zubuchon’s price list 1 kiloContinue reading “Zubuchon at Mactan Cebu International Airport”
