Lucia Cunanan

Lucía "Aling Lucing" Lagman Cunanan (February 27, 1928 – April 16, 2008) was a Filipino restaurateur best known for having invented or at least re-invented sisig, a popular Kapampangan dish in the Philippines and Filipino diasporas worldwide.

[4] Her restaurant offered a reinvented variant of sisig which soon became nationally famous.

[5] Cunanan was found bludgeoned to death in her Angeles City home with 10 stab wounds on April 16, 2008, aged 80.

Two days after her murder, local police filed parricide charges against her then 85-year-old husband Victorino.
