Kalami Cebu! - A Gastronomic Guide to Cebu

When it comes to food, the number 1 item that Cebuanos would be proud of is our inasal or lechon .  For years, it has been our trademark and even the late Anthony Bourdain exclaimed that here in Cebu, he found t he best pig ever.   In the past, we normally eat Lechon Cebu at hole-in-wall eating places.  Now, we see the rise of many restaurants that offer Lechon as its main specialty and one of the best of this kind of establishments is the House of Lechon.  I recently visited their newest branch at Don Jose Avila St., Capitol Site and here is a short review.

I received an unexpected email from a Canadian who asked about restaurant recommendations in Cebu. The guy happened to own a restaurant in Vancouver. I realized that his visit would be an awesome opportunity for me to show him what Kalami Cebu means. So, I offered to be his food tour guide.  It was not as easy as I thought but in the end, it turned out to be one tummy-filling experience for me and hopefully for them.
