Best Roast Pig in the World
 

Thought I'd share this..


I am a fan of Anthony Bourdain, so in order to give this post some context, watch this clip..

(SKip to 47seconds)

Slowly Hand Turning the Pig that's been slaughtered in the morning? Slowly rubbed with Coconut water and stuffed with Indonesian Spices?
Wow.


So, naturally, after seeing that clip, I had to fly to Bali and try what Anthony Bourdain said to be the best roast pig he's ever had.

I wasn't dissapointed.
I was so happy to find the place...

The Balinese spices and flavors were definitely the best. I'll never forget how it tasted.

Solid 10/10. Price for meal? 350,000 Indonesia Rupees... (about $3.50CAD).

Epic meal...:thumbsup: The place is soooo good. If you ever make a stop in Bali, be sure to try it.

Oh boy... So good...

wow, i want some now

Yea, me too. Funny thing is there was an option to order just the skin. So you get a few slices of the skin to eat like chips. I could really go for that right now..

Me too...



I'm still drooling. :drool

never plan to travel to bali until i stumbled upon this post :)

I love roast pig

^ The holy grail of roast pig!

Pig skin is the best, I love making a sandwich with just that and mustard so fricken good.

the only roasted pig i ever had was the chinese style ones found almost everywhere in vancouver..

you guys got any other recommendations for non chinese style?

^Filippino style. Although I have no place in particular to recommend, it's pretty damn good.

Hopewell upstairs of tnt on 1st ave and renfrew u can get roast pig on rice for 5.25 portion size is enough to feed 1.5ppl. Pretty decent price for what u get. Roast pig there is awesome!

roasting a pig wrapped in bacon and you have a drip tray underneath catch the bacon/pig fat and basting the pig in it. YUMMMMMMMM

+1 I love watching No Reservations. He goes to so many great random places. Anthony Bourdain really loves his pig. The Filippino one is really good to.

man i love this show, makes me drool all over

Fuck, the Filipino one is so gooooood.

Makes me want to go back to my motherland to get some :p

I'd love to try the Fillipino version, although I am skeptical it was more delicious than the Balinese version. I'd never tasted anything so memorable. Ended up eating there 3x.

Anyone know of any famous locations in the Phillipines?

how bout some places in van that cook it up filipino style :)

they went downhill.

i go to the place under superstore in richmond now.

the duck is phenominal there.

update: Lechon Baboy(Roasted Pig) restaurant at Joyce and Vanness. SOOOO GOOD!!!
