(This piece about my recent Cebu food trip is the second of the two parts. Part 1 was published last Monday, Oct. 9.)
On our last day in Cebu, the cast and crew of Lutong Daza travelled to Talisay --- about an hour away from Cebu City --- to try its famous Lechon Cebu. As has been said, Lechon Cebu is to Talisay as La Loma Lechon is to Quezon City.
She also puts lots of lemon grass in the belly to enhance the flavor and aroma. My cousin/co-host Sandy Daza and I actually had to wait some 20 minutes for our lechon to arrive. When it did, we requested a kilo of ribs and lots of balat, then immediately devoured it. The best way to eat lechon is with your hands, and that’s what Sandy and I did.
Sandy and I were welcomed by Jill Urbina Viado, daughter of Julita. She made us try the laksa noodle soup, rou bing , bahn mi, bibimbap and chilled taho. I particularly loved their version of run bing, which varies from the very similar Chinese lumpia thanks to the presence of pork char siu with peanuts, tofu, cabbage and shrimp. I also enjoyed the laksa and found it comparable to the laksas I’ve tasted in Singapore.
Overall, my trip to Cebu was a gastronomic delight, even though the 48 hours spent there and the seven staple meals were hardly enough to sample all the dishes that were recommended to us. I guess Lutong Daza will just have to make another mouth-watering food trip to the Queen City of the South real soon.Limited slots only!
