Start your day the Filipino way with our Tapsilog at Couple Chef Restaurant & Catering Services. This classic silog combo features tender, sweet-savoury cured beef tapa served with sinangag (garlic fried rice) and a perfectly fried egg — a staple of the Filipino breakfast silog lineup and a fan favourite on Fife Street.
Tapsilog is one of the most beloved Filipino breakfast combinations — the name itself is a portmanteau of 'tapa' (cured beef), 'sinangag' (garlic fried rice), and 'itlog' (egg). At Couple Chef, our beef tapa is thinly sliced and cured in a sweet-savoury marinade of soy sauce, garlic, sugar, and black pepper, then pan-fried until tender and slightly caramelized.
Served alongside fragrant garlic fried rice and a sunny-side-up egg, our Tapsilog is the ultimate Filipino comfort breakfast. The combination of sweet, salty, and garlicky flavours in one plate embodies the heartfelt 'lutong bahay' (home-cooked) philosophy that owners Nelson and Arlene bring to every dish. Available all day at Couple Chef.

"For $75, you can get a bunch of rice, some meat, fish, and tinigong. The silog meals at Couple Chef are absolutely worth it — the beef tapa is tender, flavourful, and perfectly paired with garlic rice."
