Join us as we celebrate the beloved Filipino dish, lechon! This exciting culinary extravaganza is a public taste testing event. We invite all home cooks, professional chefs and cooking students to our second culinary challenge. Earlier this year, we launched our Adobo Festival. This time, we're focusing on lechon -- a dish either made with pork or lechon as a way to cook a dish (via spit-roast). Your entry dish could be lechong manok, lechong baka, lechong baboy or variations of the pork dish such as lechong kawali, lechon belly, whole lechon, Cebu lechon, lechon liempo, etc. Join us for the Lechon Festival and get a chance to be crowned this year's Lechon King or Queen.
Showcase your culinary talents with your best rendition of lechon and be in to win one of the People's Choice Awards (1st, 2nd, and 3rd place). Throughout the festival, guests will taste your lechon and vote on their top choice. At the end of the day, we will tally the votes and announce the winners.
Mechanics:
1. Please prepare around 100 bite-sized servings of your dish (about 2 tablespoons) so people can decide and vote on the best lechon dish.
2. We will provide the serving dishes. Please bring enough lechon to let people sample it.
