G’day! Welcome back, today we are on the hunt for some of the best street foods here in Manila Legazpi Sunday Market, we also try the Famous Lechon! One of the most well-liked foods in the Philippines is Lechon, which is derived from a Spanish phrase for roasted suckling pig. Typically packed with lemongrass, tamarind, garlic, onions, and chives, the slow-roasted suckling pig is then cooked over an open flame on a long bamboo spit. Lechon from the Philippines is distinguished by its skin in contrast to other roast pig dishes from other cultures. The skin of a flawless Lechon is smooth and shiny throughout cooking. The greatest ones have skin that lasts for several hours without becoming soft and is always hard and crunchy. Spanish Lechon or Lechon from Spain has a similar cooking method however they use baby 6-week pigs rather than a massive pig like this one.

If your talking Lechon, you need to go where it all started I. The city of Talisay in Cebu. Cebu is the meca of Lechon in all of Philippines. Go to Carcar too in the market they have multiple lechon vendors that let you sample.
Ang mahal hahahah
I didn't see you try the skin from the lechon
Mabuhay! Stay safe sir🤗👍👍
Legaspi market is more expensive same as salcedo market …prices can be more cheaper in more local areas.I think the guy who’s selling lights ..seems don’t know how to talk in English and probably been avoiding you..😉 you should try different types of fruits too like a reaction video😉 ..just an idea ,watching from France ✌🏻🇫🇷
I am freakin' jealous of this guy from Down Under because of the Tofu. I am thinking of going into our public market here to get my own Tofu and fry it
I really don't know but I prefer to dip my lechon in vinegar rather than the sauce. Anyone who does that too?
The orange colored batter coating on the "kwek kwek" serves to soak up the dip/sauce. The dip/sauce for the lechon is ground liver stewed in garlic and vinegar and other spices. But Cebu Lechon is dipped in just spiced vinegar. Lechon not sold at the end of the day is stewed into the liver sauce and becomes Lechon paksiw 😜. Deep fried pork belly is called Lechon kawali
Tong mga bastos at oa n bloggers … nakanganga pa para tangkilikin nio… please iban natin mc binobola lang mga pinoy🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
sorry about that guy that just gave you a shrug. my guess is he's not the owner of the business and he was just asked to look after it. and he probably was sort of a snob because he's intimidated to converse with you. that's just my wild guess.
the lechon sauce is basically made from liver.

Yes Jack that fried banana called TURON in Tagalog, the tofu you've got we called it TOKWA in Tagalog and the quail egg you can simply called it in Tagalog a TOKNENENG, but if you eat some duck egg we call it KWEK-KWEK
Lovely Aussie guy… thanks for visitng the country.
I love Aussie accent.
Food looks so yummy 😋 and the place is heaven 😍😍
Wide eyed insanely amazed thumbnails 😢
Hey Jack, that's an awesome market tour. Thanks for sharing. 👍
That quail eggs has a sauce you can choose between sweet and spicy…Its called kwek-kwek. 😄😄😄
I suggest you try lechon in visayas or mindanao, its the best version of lechon.😊
The fried quail eggs is called kwek-kwek, and the wrapped fried banana is called Turon. Both are Filipino street foods. My favorite for afternoon snacks. Thank you for touring Makati City 😋
a lot of lechons in manila use the cebu recipe, my cousin has a lechon business n manila but he does the cebu style coz its the best seller, this is why some lechon in manila have same taste like cebu
The guy selling those lights was just shy because he doesnt know much to speak english.😁
The best lechon is in Cebu
very cute accent
Thank you for appreciating our Filipino foods. Goodluck on your Youtube channel. God bless!
You should have went to cebu the lechon capital of phils.
Welcome to manila

👍👍👍💪🇵🇭😇😇😇
Always shop in the local market. I think that fellow could not chat because he does not understand and speak English. Most Filipinos are very friendly and quite loquacious.
Yes, that was quite expensive. Makati, BGC and the Ortigas Center are high end locations hence the high prices.
Local areas are not fancy but you get the best deals.
Love it !!
Jack torr!! Yehey Ph TORJACK😅
Yummy 😋
The guy who nodded is just there to sell the products without having any knoedge where they get the influence of where he got the idea because he is not the owner of that shop.
Really liked the market hunt video. Do more of these in the future. Love your vids….
Glad you love my neighborhood that is Barangay San Lorenzo.
HEY! IT'S NOT SUCCULENT! SUCKLING PIG. SMALL PIG! OMG! MAJOR TURNOFF! Next time if you are not sure, please research more.
You made me salivate Jack, awesome video…
