If you’ve been craving classic Filipino food, this is for you! Recently, I discovered that Tapsulit—a well-loved Filipino food franchise—opened a new branch in Pembo, Taguig (Block 190 Lot 1 Hudyat St. Taguig 1630). Naturally, as a curious foodie, I couldn’t resist ordering a feast via GrabFood.
To make it even more exciting, I redeemed my BPI Rewards points—so everything came FREE. Talk about a perfect treat!
Let me share what I ordered and my honest impressions of each dish:
🥘 Crispy Liempo Kare-Kare – PHP 239
This was the star of my order. The crispy liempo was perfectly golden, with a satisfying crunch on every bite. Underneath, the rich, creamy peanut sauce hugged tender vegetables, creating that authentic kare-kare flavor we all grew up loving. Pro tip: don’t skip the bagoong on the side—it elevates every spoonful!
🐟 Bangus Belly Spanish Style – PHP 169
A true surprise. This Bangus Belly was soaked in a flavorful Spanish-style oil with garlic and herbs. The fish was tender and flaky, not greasy. I loved how the subtle spices balanced the natural richness of the bangus. A must-try for seafood lovers.
🥟 Shanghai Rolls (Pork Lumpia) – PHP 199
I’m always excited about lumpia Shanghai, and these didn’t disappoint. They were packed with finely minced pork, carrots, and seasonings, rolled in a crispy wrapper. Dipping them in the sweet chili sauce made them even more addictive. Perfect merienda , pulutan or ulam!
🍲 Papaitang Baka – PHP 169
This is for those who enjoy classic Ilocano flavors. The Papaitang Baka had a hearty, slightly bitter broth that paired beautifully with tender beef cuts and innards. It’s definitely an acquired taste—but if you appreciate authentic regional dishes, you’ll love this one.
🍳 Luncheon Silog – PHP 119
Who doesn’t love silog? This plate came with a slice of savory luncheon meat, garlic fried rice, and a perfectly cooked sunny-side-up egg. Simple, nostalgic, and budget-friendly—ideal for a quick breakfast or anytime comfort food.
💸 Verdict
Overall, everything was flavorful, fresh, and packaged neatly for delivery. I also appreciate that the portions were generous—definitely sulit! If you’re in Taguig and want to enjoy comforting Filipino meals at home, I recommend giving Tapsulit Pembo Branch a try.
Plus, if you’re a BPI cardholder, don’t forget to check your rewards—you might have free food waiting for you too!
