I've been a huge follower, and I'...Hi Ivan,<br /><br />I've been a huge follower, and I've even made your Bali blogs my bible for exploring the island! I'm writing because I stumbled across this blog (I believe one of the writers is American while the other German) that declared Philippine lechon flavorless, although they didn't point out where they had their lechon. So I threw in my two cents and told them about this particular post of yours and even directed them to your dictionary of Philippine street food. They wrote back saying that Bourdain seemed to be declaring this in a lot of places and that he also did the same at Ibu Oka in Bali, whose babi guling the bloggers praised to high heavens. I may be subjective as I'm Cebuano, but I honestly didn't find their lechon as "namnam" as my Bacoleno husband would say, although I tried my best to keep an open mind while eating it. And, oh, it's not just the lechon they're criticizing. Their general assessment is that Filipinos cannot cook.<br /><br />Before I forget, here's the link to the blog post: http://www.contemporarynomad.com/2010/09/who-cares-about-the-food/#more-6372<br /><br />Keep on writing and inspiring us to flashpack!
