Beef Tapa from the Philippines
Tapa to me is a Spanish small serving. In the Philippines to a tourist a beef tapa is something similar. To a local it’s a full serving. It’s similar to the Filippino version of beef steak I covered earlier in the this series. But, it’s seasoning is not as strong, and it included vegtables.
It’s usually found in canteens and is really quite nice. It’s widely available in supermarkets, and for those with access to kitchens it’s easy and fast to cook. There’s no over powering sauce nor heavy seasoning. The vegetables are crunchy and its a good side dish with rice. It usually costs around 35 pesos for a small side plate.
