@@1911Zoey pretty much anything except dishes with bittermelon. Adobo is the one we cook the most because it is so easy. Longsilog is a regular breakfast for us. Just finished a big pot of leftover caldereta.
@@TheOriginalRick you got the idea for the caldereta. It gets more complex in flavor. In western culture, having leftover is definitely a no no. I think your wife is doing a great job taking care of you Rick and you adapting is great too.
Filipinos love to put vinegar in most of the dishes cause it preserves the dishes like adobo which could be eatable for at least 3-5 days without refrigeration.
TAPSILOG is only a member of a family of breakfast items Filipinos love and adore. Basically the PREFIXES are interchangable depending on the main protien asociated with the SINANGAG - Fried rice and ITLOG - Egg hence the general term for these breakfast items "SILOG". Other Silog options include: LONGSILOG - Protein is Sweet Filipino Sausage TOSILOG - Protein is TOCINO (more or less a sweet style filipino bacon) BANGSILOG - Protein is Deep fried milkfish CORNSILOG - Protein is Corned Beef (Basically a corn beef hash of some sort) Hope you get to try the other ones since you didn't like the TAPA as much. These variations of proteins paired with the silog are made exactly for that reason (to have different options to choose from). Another thing i would like to Point out is that you actually use the vinegar based sauce as the dip for the the protein (though pouring small amounts of the sause over the rice is still ok). These vinegar sauces are basically a mixture of condements used in filipino cuisine along with soy sauce, fish sauce and more. And yes, you can literally buy them in bottles specially the spiced vinegar ones called Sinamak. These condements can be used to add more flavor and complexity to your food even on the table (while eating). Basically restaurants would have a set of of these sauces and condements for each table so that the customers could personalize their savory dishes to their taste much like how most would add hotsauce and etc to pizza. Hope this helps for future contents. Looking forward to your uploads.
here's one fun fact: TapSiLog is a mix-and-match style of Combo meal, where you can substitute the Tapa portion for any protein dish that's available. Common and equally acceptable variations more aligned with Western familiarity would be CornSiLog (Corned beef) Chik/ChixSiLog (Chicken), SpamSiLog (Duh), HotSiLog (Hotdog), and BacSiLog (Bacon). Also, it's si-na-ngag (Sea-nah-N(g)AHG), which means cooked rice mixed with garlic. Si-ni-gang (Sea-knee-GAHNG) is a soup dish that's basically a Sour Bouillabaisse. And another you should try, btw.
Thank you for this! We love when our viewers share fun facts with us. It's been great learning about food from the Philippines and can't wait to try more 😊
@@lebrownjamess Our local longganisa came from the Spanish longaniza, which is also very similar to the Portuguese sausage called linguica. Also, tocino (literally means bacon in Spanish) is also based from the Spanish bacon, except our pork belly is cured and sweetened. Last time I checked, both Spain and Portugal are part of "the West."
Most of our dishes (except maybe for saucy or tomato sauce-baded and coconut milk-based dishes) are complemented with condiments/dipping sauce. Some vinegar or soy sauce mix usually. So always ask where you order if there's a sauce or dip to go along with the dish.
I really liked the look of that. I've never tried it and don't know if there are any Filipino places near me but it's worth trying to find out. Take care guys
@@myra8158 You don't know what you're talking about.. Crispy pata and tapsilog are authentic Filipino foods. Pancit is not an authentic pinoy food as it's originally a Chinese food. you might not be even be a Filipino.
we dont usually pour that sauce in the rice. That sauce is meant for the pata to be dipped in. Dont be afraid to ask when you buy the food. The meat on the tapsilog can also be dipped into that pata sauce. That pata sauce is used for a lot of dry filipino meat dishes.
One of the traditional ways on eating handed down for generations for many Filipinos is eating without any utensils and just using your hands to scoop your mix of viand and rice.
Unfortunately, usually when Westerners see Filipinos eat with their hands they just assume that they're grabbing from the plate at random. There really is an art form to the proper placement of your fingers and how you pick up the food. A well-bred Filipino is very graceful when they eat with their fingers.
You guys are making SO hungry and SO nostalgic. I’m half Filipina and haven’t had a lot of Filipino food ( outside of adobo and lumpia) since my Grandparents passed.
Ur pronounce is right topsilog, we have also lots called log like longsilog , bangsilog, tapasilog, cornedsilog, and more made fish,corn beef, beef, pork, hotdog and more thats our ultimate breakfast in the philippines
Maligayang Pasko and Manigong Bagong Taon or Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!! Great to watch you three again! Wishing you all the best and more success!
The description of the _tapa_ being vinegary sounds odd to me, because it's usually not marinated in vinegar (or at least significantly). The primary flavors in a _tapa_ marinade is often soy sauce, garlic, and black pepper. Sourness often comes from the addition of Worcestershire sauce. However, _tapa_ is often served with a vinegar dip *ON THE SIDE* So it's possible that the tapsilog was served incorrectly: either the restaurant combined the vinegar dip as part of the marination/finished dish, or the vinegar dip was poured onto the meat.
When they pour the soy sauce on rice my eyes gets bigger and Oh nooo! It's too salty. You just dip the crispy pata on it but by the ways it will do some Filipinos do that.. Thank you for liking our food🥰🇵🇭
They are lot silog combo Bangsilog(fried fish milk/sinangag(fried rice)/itlog(egg). Tocilog(Tocino(marinated sweet meat and the sinangag and itlog). Longsilog(Longanisa(its a meat but put inside the skin and sinangag and itlog).
TAPa - marinated fried beef SInangag - fried rice Pritong itLOG - fried egg TAPSILOG that reminds me of my college days one of my faves. Good for budgetarians Nice food review, in addition regarding crispy pata, the remains can be cooked with lechon sauce and vinegar turned into Lechon Paksiw Try Paksiw na Pata (cooked in soy sauce with banana blossoms) its also good
tap (tapa) + si (sinangag = fried rice) + log (itlog=egg) = tapsilog sinigang = the sour broth while sinangag = fried rice although they rhymed but means diff
one thing i really love and enjoy watching on food videos is seeing adventurous westerners trying out foreign food. personally, i prefer tocilog (tocino), which is the pork version of the tapsilog. there are many other variations of that.
Thank you guys for trying Filipino's Tapsilog cuisine. Silog or the "Sinangag" (fried rice) and Log "Itlog" for egg, are the two base components of this dish. The Tap or "Tapa" (marinated beef with vinegar and sauce, etc.) usually changes to "Long" for Longanisa, (Identical to Tapa but sweetened), "Tu" for Tuyo (usually dried Sardine fish), "Ado" for Adobo (either with beef or pork fat and meat of especial cooking) and so on. They were usually a breakfast food but gradually became an all time dinner preparation.
When youre hungry .. youre just real and honest to the food youre eating .. its thr same expression i had when i tasted poutine for the first time i just want it all for myself 🤭
hi guys, just saw your videos eating Filipino food. i really appreciate seeing foreigners exploring and enjoying our food. enjoy! good job. don't forget to dip the food when it's paired with a sauce or else you won't get the full taste.
TAP-SI-LOG, This is an acronym for TAP is Tapa(cured beef).....SI is for sinangag(fried-rice)....LOG is egg(itlog).You just got me salivating on that crispy pata, it's been awhile I never had that.Bonne Appetite!
The tapa in tapsilog is something you can replace with something else - that's something really common so feel free to put that crispy pata on your silog (fried rice + egg). In fact, we have Tocilog which is tocino (sweetened pork), fried rice and egg. Another variation is Longsilog with longganisa which is our take on the sausage. Replace the meat with hotdogs and you have hotsilog, corned beef (sauted with garlic and onion) and you have cornsilog, fried chicken and you get chicksilog. The choices and options are endless!
Longsilog is one of our favorite breakfast meals. We usually fix it with garlic fried rice instead of plain rice. It's not unusual for us to even have it for supper sometimes, as it's so easy to fix.
my grandmother used to put a little sugar in the marinade to her tapa recipe. and we also used to squeeze a little calamansi or lemon which brings out flavor of the meat. there are different variations to the 'silog meals; spamsilog, longsilog, etc. you can make anything a 'silog by adding a different protein.
Some really flavorful Filipino dishes you should try are sisig (finely chopped pork/pig face and ears sautéed with peppers and served on a sizzling plate), papaitan (a sour soup whose main ingredients are tripe and bile [yep, you read that right]), kilawin/kinilaw (ceviche done Filipino-style), dinuguan (pork blood stew; some cooks serve it plain, using just blood; other cooks include finely chopped pork meat).
We take spoon on the right hand and eat primarily with it. The fork to pick up food and also to push food unto the spoon. Oftentimes, the spoon doubles as a knife for slicing.
I love this trio's authentic reactions. I just hope they can try Filipino food in a better restaurant. Those foods can be better in the hands of the right chef.
Originally adobo is oilly(as in soaked in its own oil) for preservation... it helps seal the meat from the air.... then the vinegar, sugar or salt also for preservation
TAPSILOG....an acronynom of our food we eat here in the Philippines combination of syllables ..."TAP" ( TAPA in TAGALOG MARINATED THIN SLICED FRIED BEEF)..."SI" (SINANGAG=FRIED RICE IN TAGALOG)..."LOG" (ITLOG=EGG)
ingredients for sauce is 1 part soy sauce 1 part vinegar, purple onions, garlic cloves, and sugar. you can also add small chili peppers for that extra kick
Sinangag is typical breakfast rice. Usually left over rice from dinner. You can try Tocilog - tocino (cured pork) Bangsilog - bangus (type of fish) Chicsilog - fried chicken And more...
Got to see your channel today for the first time, wow, that crispy pata looks spot-on perfect! Crispy skin, tender meat under, and I can almost taste the food just watching you guys munch on it, yummmm! Best taken with a cold beer, anytime, for which I associate it as a dinner thing! As with other “food+si+log” (longsilog, tosilog etc), tapsilog is generally associated with breakfast although generally, it can be served any time of the day. It’s because of the “sinangag na kanin” (fried rice) and “itlog” (egg) components that are standard breakfast items which can be paired with any other food items, like fried dried fish, fried-to-a -crisp dried pusit (dried squid, my actual preferred breakfast), etc to even American items like bacon, ham, spam, hotdog, or even “vienna” sausage etc. Perfect breakfast food for us, that tapsilog, best taken with coffee and topped of with some fruit slices on the side (banana, watermelon etc), especially when served in Philippine hotels. There are also all sorts of tapa, and it looks like you got a vinegary kind. So that’s not generally true of all tapa, and for most tapsilogs I am used to, the vinegar comes in separately packaged. Personally, I prefer a sweet and spicy tapa, and I just add vinegar separately, to taste. One thing I have to say is this, your pairing of crispy pata with tapsilog was a suboptimal choice if it were up to me! And even if you did pair them, it would have been better to start with the tapsilog then only afterwards would you try the crispy pata, especially because that crispy pata of yours looked perfect and hard to beat It might be because I associate tapsilog as a breakfast food and crispy pata as a dinner food, but that’s only me, they can be eaten anytime actually. In general, crispy pata would be served alongside other “heart attack” specials like sisig, lechon kawali, roasted lechon etc for meats, plus vegetable meals like chopsuey, laing, pinakbet etc. On the other hand, tapsilog and the like are normally served as standalone meals, so that’s why I think it’s hard to pair with other dishes. More power guys! Kudos also for using your hands while eating! And don’t feel bad after the comments saying that you are supposed to dip the meat into the sauce and not put the sauce onto the meat and rice… I do both, so dripping some of the sauce onto the rice while targeting the meat then scooping everything with a spoon to eat the crispy pata is a favorite guilty pleasure of mine hahaha, whatever works for you is fine… cheers!
Mix the egg yoke with the garlic rice, eat the beef along with it or use a vinegar dipping sauce. We use vinegar with everything. Tapa is usually more like a partly dried jerky. Tocino is another meat alternative(sugar cured pork), called tocilog.
Have never tried Filipino cuisine before but that all looked really good! What a great feast! Is “Fun Fact With Kelly” going to be a new series on the channel? And nice singing, Eric. Getting a record deal? Loved this and happy new year!! 🥳🥂🍾😎
try using the spoon to scoop up the rice hihihi filipinos use hands that’s true but most of us use the spoon and fork! use the fork to push some rice and some “ulam” on the spoon and eat~
Plain rice can be eaten straight, you can dip the crispy pata on the sauce, to neutralize the flavor of the pork from saltiness or sweetness depending on recipe used.
agree.. rice is life.. for the crispy pata, the sauce is supposed to be a dipping sauce.. but if you like to pour it on your meat and some on your rice.. there's also no problem with that.. for filipino food, it's really up to you how you want your sauce.. some people like using soy sauce.. some vingar.. some a mixture or both.. some with onions and green tomatoes and chili.. some like to dip things in catsup.. some mix catsup and soy sauce.. there are no rules.. you just gotta find out what you like best.. but you have to pair almost everything with rice.. with most filipino food, flavours are strong, coz they're intended to be paired with rice.. i just dont know though if the place where you bought those adjusted the flavours to suit the local palate.. for the tapsilog.. basically there are a lot of types of -silogs.. you can have cornsilog, which is corned beef with fried rice and egg.. there's also longsilog, which stands for longganisa (sausage) -silog.. then there's primasilog, prima which is derived from PRItong MAnok or fried chicken.. then there's sisilog (sisig), lekasilog (LEchon KAwali), tosilog (tocino), and many other members of the silog familly.. anyways, it's very nice to see that you guys appreciate filipino food.. i suggest you try the boneless lechon belly next.. and dont forget the rice.. 🥰😍
In the Philippines, we call Tapsilog as the "ALL DAY BREAKFAST MEAL"... it has other viand , Tocilog (Tocino), HOTSILOG (hotdog), Longsilog (longganisa) and more...😅
Hi! Love your vlogs. Crispy pata is really good if the dipping sauce is vinegar with soy sauce garlic onions red chili & a bit of brown sugar. For tapsilog same thing that is also good with vinegar. I hope you will try other silog meals that is a statement breakfast Filipino food. Try bangsilog, longsilog, liemposilog, embusilog, porksilog & tocilog if you get the chance. BTW Filipinos love eating with their hands like what you did. Thanks for trying our dishes. Keep safe.
Crispy Pata is hogs leg, they boil it first then they deep fry it, then the tapsilog is for breakfast and its made of marinated beef. there's a lot of variations of SILOG meals. some are fried fish, hotdogs, fried chicken, pork chops, and other types sometimes its from other provinces in the philippines
I've had rice everyday for the past 48 years. One of the side benefits of being married to a Filipina, I guess.😍😍😍

They are lot silog combo
Bangsilog(fried fish milk/sinangag(fried rice)/itlog(egg).
Tocilog(Tocino(marinated sweet meat and the sinangag and itlog).
Longsilog(Longanisa(its a meat but put inside the skin and sinangag and itlog).
The way you eat the rice with you hand is actually the best way in eating rice. It makes all food taste even better when eating with hand.
You guys made me hungry I love filipino food so much!
Sinigang and Sinangag are two different thing
Sinangag = Garlic Fried Rice
Sinigang = Pork/Fish Sour Soup
TAPa - marinated fried beef
SInangag - fried rice
Pritong itLOG - fried egg
TAPSILOG that reminds me of my college days one of my faves. Good for budgetarians
Nice food review, in addition regarding crispy pata, the remains can be cooked with lechon sauce and vinegar turned into Lechon Paksiw
Try Paksiw na Pata (cooked in soy sauce with banana blossoms) its also good

Just to add..we Filipinos use spoon instead of fork when eating with rice. It's just easier to get more of everything in one bite. #protip 😉

Try it with atsara/achara (pickled shredded papaya).
TAPA(marinated beef) -SINANGAG(fried rice) - ITLOG (egg). TAPSILOG
OMG! That crispy pata looks so gooood! 😍 I just ate but I’m kind of hungry again.
Neighbors ( I’m in Hamilton Ontario) thank you for trying the Filipino food
Got to see your channel today for the first time, wow, that crispy pata looks spot-on perfect! Crispy skin, tender meat under, and I can almost taste the food just watching you guys munch on it, yummmm! Best taken with a cold beer, anytime, for which I associate it as a dinner thing!
As with other “food+si+log” (longsilog, tosilog etc), tapsilog is generally associated with breakfast although generally, it can be served any time of the day. It’s because of the “sinangag na kanin” (fried rice) and “itlog” (egg) components that are standard breakfast items which can be paired with any other food items, like fried dried fish, fried-to-a -crisp dried pusit (dried squid, my actual preferred breakfast), etc to even American items like bacon, ham, spam, hotdog, or even “vienna” sausage etc. Perfect breakfast food for us, that tapsilog, best taken with coffee and topped of with some fruit slices on the side (banana, watermelon etc), especially when served in Philippine hotels.
There are also all sorts of tapa, and it looks like you got a vinegary kind. So that’s not generally true of all tapa, and for most tapsilogs I am used to, the vinegar comes in separately packaged. Personally, I prefer a sweet and spicy tapa, and I just add vinegar separately, to taste.
One thing I have to say is this, your pairing of crispy pata with tapsilog was a suboptimal choice if it were up to me! And even if you did pair them, it would have been better to start with the tapsilog then only afterwards would you try the crispy pata, especially because that crispy pata of yours looked perfect and hard to beat It might be because I associate tapsilog as a breakfast food and crispy pata as a dinner food, but that’s only me, they can be eaten anytime actually.
In general, crispy pata would be served alongside other “heart attack” specials like sisig, lechon kawali, roasted lechon etc for meats, plus vegetable meals like chopsuey, laing, pinakbet etc. On the other hand, tapsilog and the like are normally served as standalone meals, so that’s why I think it’s hard to pair with other dishes.
More power guys! Kudos also for using your hands while eating! And don’t feel bad after the comments saying that you are supposed to dip the meat into the sauce and not put the sauce onto the meat and rice… I do both, so dripping some of the sauce onto the rice while targeting the meat then scooping everything with a spoon to eat the crispy pata is a favorite guilty pleasure of mine hahaha, whatever works for you is fine… cheers!
Thank you for sharing this and spending time on our channel! 😀
"Wow," that looks so delicious 😋 . That Crispy pata looks so Scrumptious 😋🍖👍 .
So good! We're loving exploring cuisine from around the world!
Im so amaze watching your video eating Filipino food. Try also Kare-kare and pork sisig and its definitely good.
Thanks for the suggestions, and thanks so much for watching!
I started making Filipino cooking videos because of my Filipina gf so it’s cool to see other vids
Sauce is a mixture of soy sauce , vinegar, salt and pepper and u can add chopped chili and onion
Thanks for sharing!

Im hungry too! My old time fave. I eat crispy pata with bare hands have a sayce made if soysauce with vinegar, pepper, onion and hot chili
Sounds great! We need more Filipino foods in our lives!
Mix the egg yoke with the garlic rice, eat the beef along with it or use a vinegar dipping sauce. We use vinegar with everything. Tapa is usually more like a partly dried jerky. Tocino is another meat alternative(sugar cured pork), called tocilog.
Thank you for loving Filipino food ! I live in California for 23 years, my proposal is visit Philippines 🇵🇭
Tap si log it means, tapa, sinangag(pride rice) itlog(sunny side up egg)it's good together with beef soup
tap+si+log (Beef Tapa + Fried Garlic Rice + Fried Egg).
Have never tried Filipino cuisine before but that all looked really good! What a great feast! Is “Fun Fact With Kelly” going to be a new series on the channel? And nice singing, Eric. Getting a record deal? Loved this and happy new year!! 🥳🥂🍾😎
Happy new year Jackie! My first single is dropping soon, haha. 😉
you should try it right now and im sure you will addicted hehe
@@jepoylolinco2312 no its literally just a chewy fake deep fried pork that is very common in all Southeast Asian countries!
@@myra8158 mukha mo peke wla konh pakelam sa opinyon mo kuha mo ???
@@jepoylolinco2312 he means fake deep fried
kasi parang fried lahat pati sa inside haha potcha ka basahin mong maigi or maybe im the one wrong hahah
Next should be sisig if you guys haven’t tried it yet. But you need to eat right away at the restaurant because it’s serve on a sizzling plate.
try using the spoon to scoop up the rice hihihi filipinos use hands that’s true but most of us use the spoon and fork! use the fork to push some rice and some “ulam” on the spoon and eat~
Crispy pata, sisig, barbeques, isaw and liquor (beer, brandy, rum, whisky, gin, whatever you prefer 😂)
You can also dip the beef tapa in vinegar.
Thanks for the tip!
sauce is 1 cup vinegar, 1 cup soy sauce, 1 tbsp sugar, loads of chopped garlic and onion. Add chilli if you like a bit of kick.
Crispy Pata is often present on every Filipino's table during Christmas holiday season.
Plain rice can be eaten straight, you can dip the crispy pata on the sauce, to neutralize the flavor of the pork from saltiness or sweetness depending on recipe used.
as a breakfast meal, it goes really well with coffee.
The guy with the glass has a Filipino tongue. He knows how to read it right. Even in the other videos.
Maybe there’s a little Filipino blood in him? Time for a DNA test, haha! Thanks for watching
agree.. rice is life.. for the crispy pata, the sauce is supposed to be a dipping sauce.. but if you like to pour it on your meat and some on your rice.. there's also no problem with that.. for filipino food, it's really up to you how you want your sauce.. some people like using soy sauce.. some vingar.. some a mixture or both.. some with onions and green tomatoes and chili.. some like to dip things in catsup.. some mix catsup and soy sauce.. there are no rules.. you just gotta find out what you like best.. but you have to pair almost everything with rice.. with most filipino food, flavours are strong, coz they're intended to be paired with rice.. i just dont know though if the place where you bought those adjusted the flavours to suit the local palate..
for the tapsilog.. basically there are a lot of types of -silogs.. you can have cornsilog, which is corned beef with fried rice and egg.. there's also longsilog, which stands for longganisa (sausage) -silog.. then there's primasilog, prima which is derived from PRItong MAnok or fried chicken.. then there's sisilog (sisig), lekasilog (LEchon KAwali), tosilog (tocino), and many other members of the silog familly..
anyways, it's very nice to see that you guys appreciate filipino food.. i suggest you try the boneless lechon belly next.. and dont forget the rice.. 🥰😍
Thank you for the suggestion! We've had a great time trying all the Filipino dishes 😄
Here in the Philippines, we usually eat tapsilog or longsilog with ketchup..in the Philippines Banana Ketchup is preferred
Mmmm... never had banana ketchup before. Have to try and find some at our grocery store for next time. Thanks for watching!
In the Philippines, we call Tapsilog as the "ALL DAY BREAKFAST MEAL"... it has other viand , Tocilog (Tocino), HOTSILOG (hotdog), Longsilog (longganisa) and more...😅
I can see why you call tapsilog all day breakfast! Seems like meal that's perfect any time of the day 😊
Happy New Year from the Philippines
Happy new year!!
Hi! Love your vlogs. Crispy pata is really good if the dipping sauce is vinegar with soy sauce garlic onions red chili & a bit of brown sugar. For tapsilog same thing that is also good with vinegar. I hope you will try other silog meals that is a statement breakfast Filipino food. Try bangsilog, longsilog, liemposilog, embusilog, porksilog & tocilog if you get the chance. BTW Filipinos love eating with their hands like what you did. Thanks for trying our dishes. Keep safe.
Thanks for watching Jell! Appreciate all of the suggestions as well!
Crispy Pata is hogs leg, they boil it first then they deep fry it, then the tapsilog is for breakfast and its made of marinated beef.
there's a lot of variations of SILOG meals. some are fried fish, hotdogs, fried chicken, pork chops, and other types sometimes its from other provinces in the philippines
Love the honest opinion. More power and stay safe. 😊😊
Thanks for your kind words ❤️
Guys you ordered wrong marinated tapa.... we marinate tapa in soy sauce and cracked black pepper... that's it. Vinegar is optional only....
Actually, the old recipes did use vinegar. But i guess they overdid it here. It's suppose to be only subtle.
Although some would put the Crispy Pata soy/vinegar sauce on top of the rice, it's usually used as a dipping sauce.
My eyes immediately opened woke-wide when the dipping sauce was (generously) added to the rice. 😲
"There's a sour taste to the vinegar". I died 😆
Also try Bagnet and lecheon belly.
