Food Post: The Forgettable Taparazzi

09.08.2012 by Leah //

I was craving for a good tapsilog (a meal composed of beef tapa, fried egg and garlic rice) last week and AJ suggested that we try this restaurant along McKinley Hill that serves mainly tapsilog meals.

It’s called Taparazzi, and I really pinned my hopes at this name which gave me the impression that they serve really, really good tapsilog (better than Rufo’s).

The interiors are also impressive, it looks really new and is mighty clean.   We excitedly ordered their bestsellers but ended up very disappointed as there’s nothing special in them at all.

The Bacon Tapa (P140.00) was crunchy alright but I can’t understand the taste – if it’s meant to taste like a bacon or a beef tapa.

The Classic Tapa (P120.00) was bland.

So were the chicken lollipops (P120 for 3 pieces).

The only good thing about this restaurant is that the meals come at very affordable prices.   Our bill came at less than P500.00, including the drinks.  But then again, that’s an expensive price for a meal that’s generally bland and unappealing.

Will definitely not stop by eat here again.
