Sweet, savoury and slightly spicy cured pork slices with garlic rice and a fried egg — the sweetest plate in our silog line-up.
Tocino is Filipino cured pork — sweet, faintly smoky, and unmistakable for its deep red colour. Pair it with garlic fried rice and an egg and you get tocilog, the plate most Filipinos will name in the same breath as tapsilog.
Our cured pork slices land sweet up front, savoury underneath, with a small chili lift at the finish. They caramelise on the pan into sticky edges that play against the plain garlic rice beneath.
If tapsilog is the savoury, beef-forward silog, tocilog is the sweet one. At $13.99 it is a dollar under the tapsilog plate and the one to pick if you like a sweeter, stickier protein with your garlic rice.
