“Lechon in Cebu”, is a whole magical phrase that is quite famous in the whole country. Nothing beats our tasty, juicy and crispy lechon.

The roasted suckling pig, locally known as “lechon”, is made quite differently here in Cebu instead of just the normal clean and cook, they are roasted stuffed with all the delicious goodness of herbs, salt and other ingredients that are absorbed from the inside out.

Though it takes too much time and a lot of work, roasting these pigs to that perfect golden brown have already been mastered by the Cebuanos.

Every lechon has its own taste and charm to our palates, you just have to find that one taste that will trigger your binge eating self.

With that, I have here a collection of the best-loved lechon In The City that can be found at SM Seaside City Cebu.
