lechon asado?

Carol wrote:Lechon is also popular in Filipino cuisine. DH, who is half Filipino, buys lechon --plain, roast pig, usually with the chicharron still on -- in markets in Chinatown (Ask for roast pork; the Chinese don't call it lechon). You can buy whole roasted pigs or you can buy lechon by the pound, and they'll cut it up for you. (He couldn't remember the name of the market, altho there are several in Chinatown that sell it; I'll try to get an address when he gets home from work.)

Sun Wah on Argyle has long offered the Filipino style lechon, include the de rigeur liver sauce. I've had it several times at my Filipino friend's mah jong events, and it's always good. (although you have to order in advance to get the whole side o' pig).
