Tapsilog (tapa, egg and fried rice) is a popular breakfast meal among Pinoys. Although it is primarily served during breakfast, many Filipinos prefer to eat it any time of the day.
The presence of countless tapsilog businesses in almost any place in the country is one proof that it is among the many booming businesses in the Philippines. Aside from serving tapsilog, many tapsilog businesses also offer other silog (friend rice and egg) meals including longsilog, hotsilog, hamsilog, chickensilog, among many others.
