We often associate budget meals with Silogs as these dishes consist of relatively inexpensive ingredients specifically– egg, fried rice, and a meat of your choice. Budget meals are often associated with being bland and lacking, but that isn’t always the case! We put together our top three Silog spots in the Metro that pack a ton of flavor, you’d be surprised they’re even budget meals!
Kanin Bawang
Nestled in BF Homes, Parañaque City, Kanin Bawang is a gem offering delectable dishes ranging from PHP 95 to 120. Don’t miss out on their crowd-favorites, Tapsilog and Bangsilog. The Tapsilog is a flavor bomb with tender and juicy meat that practically melts in your mouth. It’s so good that you’ll want it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Meanwhile, the Bangsilog was packed with savory goodness in each bite. The portions were large, and the Bangus was really fresh! Best of all? They offer unlimited rice and soup options — who can say no to that?
Emily in Pares
Just like the adventures of Emily in Paris from the Netflix comedy-drama series with the same name, Emily in Pares on Zapote St. in Makati City offers an equally exciting experience — this time, of Filipino classics. Their signature dish, the Classic Beef Pares, strikes the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and salty. We also recommend trying out their Crispy Chicken Fillet meal and Tapsilog; the buttery chicken and meaty Tapa are absolute winners. With prices ranging from PHP 99 to 129, it’s like finding a hidden gem in the bustling city, reminiscent of Emily’s discoveries in the series.

Situated on Ruby Road in Ortigas, Jarret’s is a go-to spot for those craving tasty meals on a budget. Their legendary Tapsilog, famous for its crazy delicious flavors and tender meat, will keep you coming back for more.
