      It is a hard competition for Lechon in Cebu.. But most people you ask will say either House of Lechon or Ricos Lechon.. In terms of the big places..
      I prefer this one, "House of Lechon" because they also have a good selection of other authentic filipino dishes in a good quality.

      Man, avoid saying "my Filipino". Filipinos having been colonised and treated like lower class citizens or even slaves by the Spanish and then the Americans, it gives off a degrading tone like owning someone as an object (or a slave). Say "my Filipino wife" instead. Just a friendly tip 😊

    "Cebu Lechon" is the Best in the World. According to Anthony Bourdain and Andrew Zimmerman who visited Cebu, Philippines 🇵🇭. Both of them are Chef Cook, Author, Americans and have a Food Network Channel in the U.S.A. You can eat Lechon with your hand or fork, spoon, chopsticks, whichever you prefer, we Filipinos eat it with our hands..😂 I always subscribe to your Channel Jonathan, always: God Bless, "Amping" meaning in Bisaya dialect Take Care!...

    “Tangingi” is kingfish.
    There’s no rule whether or not “lechon” is eaten with the silverware or with the hand.
    The “kinilaw” on the rice cracker, I believe, is for a crackling texture against the softened fish in sauce.
