Food Glorious Food

Let me just walk through some of the more famous courses that Vigan is known for aside from bagnet, longanisa and empanada (which is really more of a snack than anything else): sinanglao, pipian, bagbagis, dinardaraan, chicharon, dinaldalem, lechon or inasar (the local one has a special ingredient called karimbuaya that makes it taste different), kare-kare (no need for alamang here), lomo, chicken with maraotong, vigan tapa and costillas, pochero, goat imbalittad and kaldereta, local miki and a slew of other items that may not always be "healthy" by modern day standards. Not being a cook, it would be difficult to completely describe these dishes which await us all come 2011.
