Last October 17, we, at The Queen City of the South, made a public poll asking people online to nominate the best lechon that they have tasted (See post here – http:\/\/bit.ly\/2uKdARg). After a week of nomination, we narrowed down the list and asked the people to choose the Top 4 Best Tasting Lechon in Cebu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
