MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – For the first time ever, Andok’s, the household name for litson manok and other grilled meat and fish, is partnering with The Adobo Chronicles to launch an annual search for ‘Pambansang Litson Manok.’

Andok’s and The Adobo Chronicles today jointly announced the criteria for the 2017 award:

• In order to qualify, nominees must have been repeatedly ‘burned’ (na-litson) for their comments, actions or stories (in the case of the news media.)
