The South Cotabato chapter of our Mindanao vacation really exhausted us. On our way home to the Fish Port in General Santos, we're running on empty already that's why we decided to re-fuel.
One of our "tour guides" suggested this popular Tapsilogan called "Taps n Mix." The 24/7 place doesn't look like any tasilogan in Manila I know of. Its dark, quiet and customers (with earphones) were busy on their laptops in-between bites. Parang nasa-Starbuck's ako with dim lights with ginisa smell. Barkadas stay outside al-fresco where they can smoke, laugh and sing happy birthday.
Anyway, we ordered for Tapsilog (I prefer my eggs, over hard) and Lechon sa Kawali (Ribsilog). I wasn't really expecting much from their Tapsilog. Kase for me, Tapsilog is Tapsilog. Mali.
Just by looking at the plate being served, I immediately noticed that their Tapa is sauteed. I tasted it. Tama ako.
Our "tour guide" confirmed that they saute their Tapa here. So, did I like it? Hmmm... I'll stick to my classic fried (un-satueed) Tapa. And how about the Lechon sa Kawali? I liked it. Their Lechon sa Kawali was how it should be... tustado, maalat-alat at maraming taba!
