We are teaming up with FoodieMommaPH (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8hiiGm6GTyTVvO-LtZ2Xmw?sub_confirmation=1) to bring you an entire street food series in Manila, Philippines!

She can arrange your visit too! For more nformation, visit Bale Dutung website: https://baledutung.com/ Chef Claude and Mary Ann Tayag are the masterminds behind the beautiful lechon degustation in today’s video. The restaurant is also their home and art gallery, featuring pieces made by Chef Claude himself. The suckling pig is roasted on site, village style, and all of the food is gathered in the community, everything is local and Filipino. The pig is made into 6 dishes and the other courses are traditional Filipino dishes. While Chef Claude is busy creating dishes fresh throughout the experience, Maryann walks through each dish and explains the ingredients used. You may be familiar with the restaurant or the chef because his restaurant was featured in Anthony Bourdain’s “Parts Unknown”. Visiting Bale Dutung is a great way to experience “village” life in the Philippines as well as an introduction into traditional food in the Philippines. Price of the meal (10 course lechon): minimum PHP 1,850 / USD $35.72 with 12 people. Want to visit and each this insanely DELICIOUS lechon in Manila?
