its raining here and im craving for lechon?......

Hi Zelmarq! Ummm, pork lechon! Very rare that I do have it, only during festivities and if I do, I will only get a small portion! For the benefit of our foreign friends here, Lechon is the Spanish word for suckling pig. In the Philippines, it connotes a whole roasted pig. It is usually served with a liver-based sauce. However, in some cases, it may be served Chinese style with steamed buns and a sweet plum sauce...But we do love it especially when the leftovers of the lechon are recycled into another delectable dish which is lechon paksiw. Yummy! That was what we have eaten for lunch yesterday given or sent to us by my husband's dear aunt who happens to be our neighbor. God bless her! Now, we are back to vegetables and fish! haha... Take care and have a nice day! lovelots..faith210

Hmmm... Let's go out on this rainy Sunday morning and get some lechon.LOL! i wonder what I'll have for lunch though, I hope the rain will stop.

Not sure what it is but I just hate to want some thing and cantget ahold of it that day but later is good too.

hi zelmarg...that's delicious!!!what a pity then..when you crave but cant have it...i had experience that one too but not with lechon..its with grapesim frustrated actually...but as the hour passes by it diminish..

I hate it when I crave something and cannot get it.

what is lechon?

now,now,what is lechon???is it only me or are there others who donot know its meaning????????

I hate it when I get a craving and I cannot go get what I want. I will have to ask you though, what is lechon? I am interested in knowing more. If I wanted something badly enough, I would probably go out and get it, even in the rain.

I am very sorry to hear that. What is lechon? I hope you can get you some very soon.

Okay, I had to go look that up. I have never heard of it, but it sounds pretty tasty!

I do pity you - it is so difficult to have a strong craving and have no means of quenching it. I have no idea what lechon is so I have a craving to solve my curiosity! is it a fruit or a milk candy?

That is so sad... i know how it is to crave for a particular food and not be able to immediately eat that... not at all painful... but not satisfying... seems like no other food will suffice... I hope you get your lechon... i also love this food... expecially the skin... very crunchy and very yummy...

You crave for Lechon?...ha ha ha, meaning you are in loneliness. One Zamboangan told me if one person feeling that way, high level of loneliness in oneself. He said, not me said...LOL!!! Yeah...after being part of Zamboangan nowadays, I knew what is Lechón (Tagalog: Litson and Cebuano: Inasal) is the Spanish word for suckling pig. In the Philippines, it connotes a whole roasted pig, lechón baboy. Chicken and beef are also popular. The process of lechón involves the whole pig/piglet, chicken, or cattle/calf being slowly roasted over charcoal. V V V pics. attached V V V

wow... yummy... it makes me want to eat one, too... :) but it's just that right now, I'm limiting myself from eating too much meaty food, coz if i started to eat lechon, i may not be able to stop til i'm bloated...
