CnT Lechon
The Taste of Cebuanos
The most famous lechon Cebu! You’ll see cartons of cartons of this article in the check-in counter at the airport, brought by people coming from Cebu as “pasalubongs” to people back home. You’ll be surprised at how famous this used to be a simple and small carinderia is today. It had become a huge bowl of success and won over the hearts of Cebuanos and all sorts of visitors who go to Cebu. In any normal day, this place runs out of lechons due to its popular demand. So make sure you go earlier in the day before you regret not having to taste their specialty lechon.
By the time we landed Cebu it was almost time for lunch, from the airport we settled in our hotel room and freshened up a bit then headed straight to the famous yellow building of CnT Lechon just outside of SM City to get a taste of the whole pork roast everyone is so crazy for.

One of my friend’s brothers once came home from Cebu carrying this simple chocolate goody & I was lucky enough to have tried it – and then it took me away instantly! Having looked at it on a glance you’d think this chocolate dessert is an ordinary chocolate delicacy, but once you take a bite you’re sure to lose it and wonder what that thing is?!
The thin, round, chocolate covered in a crazy thin yellow white element is called: The Belgian Chocolate Lace Cookies. You take a bite and you feel the lovely dark chocolate crumbling in your mouth and then there comes the crunchy component playing around it which is your lace cookie. Fantastic mysterious treat!

A fragile state may be characterized by weak state institutions, unstable political arrangement and internal armed conflict. In these times of climate change where risk hazard for citizens are increasing, fragile states may find their problems intensify. A fragile state has minimal or no mitigation and adaptation policies for the effects of climate change, and in the event of a calamity, will most likely fail to deliver basic services to those who need it.
The Philippines is an example of a fragile state. State institutions are inefficient, laws are not taken seriously by its citizens and more than 4 decades of armed conflict that challenges the legitimacy of the state itself.

May dalawang taon na rin ang nakalipas nang na-i-post ko ang tunkol sa Divisoria Shopper’s Map: A guide on the whereabouts of the things you need to buy in Divisoria.
