    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.

    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.

    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 :smile:

    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.:smile:

    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
