LongSiLog - Breakfast at Kulinarya


Barako coffee, LongSiLog, garlic cornics... what a way to a Saturday morning.
Kulinarya had been announcing that they would be serving Filipino breakfast on Saturday mornings... today, they finally did it, I went to try, this time I dined in... instead of my usual take out. I ordered the LongSiLog.
LongSilog is the term used when Longaniza (Filipino sausage), siningag (garlic-fried rice) and itlog (egg-sunnyside up) are combined into one meal served as breakfast.

To my surprise, the serving is a full plate. I was thinking of just two pieces of Longaniza, and a small cup of rice with egg, but check out the photo, it was a filling breakfast.
Tasty fried rice, not too garlicky, the rice wasn't hard and not burnt, the sunny side up egg was cooked well, but still tasting medium well, (you know that flavour and texture). The Longaniza was bought local (I asked), 4 - 5 pieces cut in half, they also added a couple slices of tomatoe and I must say it the crispiest tomatoe I have every had... just perfect for the dish. I had the Barako coffee (is a coffee varietal grown in the Philippines- Wikipedia) with this dish, (sarap). The vinegar dip was offered but doesn't come with the dish. Their vinegar is a good blend, I was told it's their own mix, but I think it could do with a little more bitter taste. I would like to have more atchara on my next order, it was only a tablespoon full.


All in all, the Barako (not barko) coffee, the LongSiLog+tomatoe with vinegar made my morning. There was a whole family (from grandparents to grandkids) of 10 having their breakfast there, even the little kids (Caucasian) were having a full plate of LongSiLog... just goes to show that this dish is for everyone.


I wanted to have another cup of their Barako coffee (free) and order the Bangus, but had to go.
I wonder how Kulinarya did with their first Saturday with their Filipino breakfast.

This menu is offered everyday of the week.

Other breakfast dishes are TapSiLog [3 stars], (cured meat), siningag and itlog; BangSiLog Bangus [5 stars - a must try] (dried milk-fish), siningag and itlog.

Try it.
