crispy brown skin and the sumptuous tasty meat of roast pig. Indeed, inasal

or lechon has become a tradition for Filipinos. It is usually served during

celebrations like graduations, birthdays and especially fiestas.In Cebu island,

one of its cities do not just serve inasal during fiestas but has made the local

delicacy a much bigger part of its annual festival tradition. Talisay’s Halad-Inasal

Festival on the 14^th and 15^th October is held in honor of the patroness, Sta.

Theresa de Avila, showcasing the inasal in colorful and creative costumes.

and crispy skin don't need sauce to perk up its herb-enhanced

flavors. And Talisay is the capital of this favorite centerpiece

of the Filipino fiesta table.

Festival will also feature a festival queen competition.
