⌛ Banilad Piggery

These two pictures are from the local Piggery near My house in Natasha Village 2.Last I recall the prices were P2,000-2,500 for a fully cooked Lechon.Not bad considering the same thing here in California cost You closer to $200 U.S...

 

thanx for sharing this pictures here...i remember our barrio fiesta.

 

They are a lot on the small side, I got my wife's parents a pig for xmas
and it was four times than those little piggy's. :p

 

Thank you, John, for sharing those pics. The prices seem reasonable for small sized lechons. I guess one can order larger sized ones depending on one's party need. Now, with rising inflation, expect to pay more.

 

I paid 35,000 peso for a large pig, it was massive,but we had to slaughter it
our selfs. gosh, don't they make a lot of noise when the knife sinks in.:D

 

Halo there Jimeve, if you paid that price for a larger pig, you've been ripped off. You might be mistaken for your 35,000 for 3,500PhP.

 

Are you shure it wasn't a "hippo" you bought.:D

 

Hi Chrissar, my mistake 5,000 peso, and the pig's weight was 70 kilos,
according to my asawa.

 

I've heard lechon is awfully tasty, but couldn't work in place like that.

Those poor fellas...though I don't usually think about that when the ham or pork is on my plate

 

Well I would sure not have lived in the Philippines, if I were a pig.
I doubt there is never a place more far from the "Pig Heaven" than there.

During the blessing of my house in Bacong we had 4 pigs. These to for Lechon and two 75 kilos each for ordinary dishes.
The two big ones I only videoed. (no photos).
And there will always be a mystery to me how small philippinos are able to eat so much during so short time.:D
