Food Review: Tapa King restaurant


My friend and I always frequent this place. The place is situated in the heart of Quezon City. Very convenient and its near my place. And our workplace is also near here.

Tapa King specializes in Filipino home made dried beef and pork which we call tapa. Thus, the restaurant's name is Tapa King. They usually serve the beef or pork with garlic fried rice and home made pickled side dish which we call achara (made from grated papaya, preserved in vinegar with grated carrots, raisins and red/green bell pepper).

But that's not all they also serve other Pinoy favorites merienda(snack) like palabok, champorado (chocolate rice porridge serve with small dried fish, similar to anchovies). I love their spaghetti, cooked Filipino style (sweet taste). This time I ordered their chocolate cake (which really looks tempting). It has a caramel sauce in between. My friend and I had a good dinner.
