Everywhere in the country, you see a lot of “silog”.
Tapsilog. Tuyosilog. Hotsilog. Longsilog. Tocilog.
Whatever the combination is, these silog’s come as Filipino
foods.
I say:
Silog. More Fun in
the Philippines.
Tuyosilog |
Silog stands for sinangag and itlog. Sinangag means
fried rice. Itlog means egg.
Combinations include tapa, hotdog, longganisa, tocino, tuyo.
How do I English these? Anyone?
Tuyo is fried dried
fish. Hotdog, longganisa, tocino, tapa – processed foods, etcetera.
I like it eating tuyosilog.
I match it with sukang maanghang
(spicy vinegar). Tuyo may be salty
and not so friendly to people avoiding too much salt.
However, the moment I
taste tuyo, I have to eat more rice,
(carbo). To me, eating silog which is
only in the Philippines is a gluttonous patriotism.
Silog. I patronize it. It is more fun eating silog in the Philippines…and it is gluttonous
to me.
