Every October 12 here in Zamboanga City, the Zamboangeños celebrate the Hermosa Festival or Fiesta Pilar. The city celebrates 12 days and nights with lots of events and activities. We celebrate mainly in honor of the miraculous image of Our Lady of the Pilar Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Zaragosa. The most awaited day is the feast day itself, which is October 12, where people from all over the city will have their own celebration with their families at home where they will cook any kind of dish.
One special dish would be fried pork chops. Although pork chops is not a traditional Filipino food, but you can't help but make some for the whole family right? : )
Pork Chops are really delicious if cooked properly and if the right cut of meat was bought. Pork chops are either fried or grilled, whichever you like it's fine as long as you don't over-cook it. If you want to have it grilled, be sure you must make the proper marinade and sauce so that it will turn out juicy. If you want to fry it, also make the right coating with spices to that it will be tasty.
Viva Nuestra Señora del Pilar!!! : )
