Tapa King

Went with some of my colleagues to Clark Field for some meetings last week, and our usual early morning breakfast ritual is a stop at Tapa King at the Total gas station right after the Candaba aqueduct.  Leaving our meeting place at the Araneta Coliseum in Cubao at the early time of 7:30 am can take its toll on my body, and after driving for an hour, I just have to appease my grumbly tummy!  Tapa King was been around since the late eighties, taking flight from the Tapsilog (tapa, sinangag at itlog) craze during that era.  Their "Royale" plate consists of 3-4 slices of good beef tapa, 2 eggs and a cupful of garlic rice, for P165. The classic plate has smaller beef slices, and goes for P135, but has only 1 egg.  After our 30 minute pit stop cum coffee break, we were off to Clark just in time to catch our 9:30 am meeting!
