One of our weekend family “traditions” is to have a hearty meal for breakfast (or “brekky” in OZ terminology).  Because during the work week, we’d almost always only have a bowl of cereals and a cup of steamy hot chocolate drink.

The meal in photo is one of the more popular breakfast foods in the Philippines.  It’s called TAPSILOG, which stands for TAP – Tapa or Beef strips; SI – Sinangag or Fried Rice and LOG – Itlog or Egg.  I haven’t tried curing beef for this meal but maybe one of these days I will.  We like this served with a steamy hot drink.  Yum!
