Lechon Roll

Dinakdakan is a traditional Filipino dish originating from the Ilocos region in the northern part of the Philippines. It's a savory and tangy appetizer or main dish made primarily from grilled pork parts, typically including pig's ears, cheeks, and liver. After grilling, the meat is chopped into bite-sized pieces and mixed with various flavorings such as calamansi juice (a local citrus fruit), vinegar, onions, and chili peppers. The dish is known for its bold and zesty taste, with the acidity of the vinegar and calamansi cutting through the richness of the grilled pork. Dinakdakan is often enjoyed as a pulutan (beer match) or as part of a hearty meal, served alongside rice or with a side of pickled vegetables. It's a favorite among Filipinos for its robust flavor and is commonly served during gatherings and celebrations.
