Leonardo's Lechon

Who doesn't hyperventilate when they see lechon? I was lucky to have been invited (again) to join the lechon tasting of Leonardo's. I missed the first one so I made sure that I don't have any other schedule when I got invited again. Hahaha, that's how much I love lechon.

Also, I'm curious about this special kind of lechon by Leonardo's.

"Tonkatsu is one of the favorite feasts families in Japan indulge and because of that, I took the challenged of making the best Tonkatsu in town."- Chef Terazawa said.
