Crispy deep-fried pork belly with crackling skin, served two ways — over garlic rice and egg, or with java rice and gravy.
Lechon kawali is pork belly simmered until tender, then deep-fried until the skin turns into crackling. Done properly the skin shatters and the meat underneath stays juicy — it is the benchmark dish for any Filipino kitchen.
We serve it two ways. Lechon Kawalisilog puts it over garlic fried rice with an egg at $13.99. Crispy Pork Belly plates it with java rice and gravy at $17.99 as a sizzling plate.
The pork is identical; the plate around it is what changes. Take the $13.99 silog version if you want garlic rice and egg, or the $17.99 sizzling plate if you want java rice and gravy. Crispy pork also tops our Pancit Bihon and Crispy Pork Lugaw.

The pork is the same. Lechon Kawalisilog ($13.99) is served over garlic rice with an egg; Crispy Pork Belly ($17.99) is a sizzling plate with java rice and gravy.
It is fried to order and boxed so steam can escape, which keeps the crackling as intact as possible on the way across Winnipeg.
