Filipino birthday Party...
Permalink  

Its my birthday tomorrow, and today just before lunch, I note the Dining table being set up with food, people arriving, a cake, and suddenly realized its a party. Here it is !! Most parties here have a roast pig, called lechon baboy. Lechon being a BBQ and baboy a pig.

 

Im not keen on birthday parties now coz there are too many candles to blow out, but I enjoyed it anyway. A couple of selected photos follow

How,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BG

That pig looks amazing BG. Hope it tasted as good as it looks and the rest of the goodies look good too.

I was lucky to enjoy some pig cooked like that once and they basted it in some garlic mix.  Yummo.

Happy Birthday Ken!   biggrin

I just returned from a camp this week and a Filipino Australian lady cooked me pancakes, her husband told me she loved to cook and had decked out his caravan to suit her passion for cooking.     The pancakes were delicious ! biggrin

All I can say is, thank goodness It was a pig and not a wombat.

I have better use for wombats.....attached to my wombat scoop biggrin 

Hope you enjoyed your share of that pig BG and some some extra for me.

I'm actually having a bit of pig tonight but cooked in my Q.
