SIOPAO WITH THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
WHY TAITONG TOPS!
B1
Chinese food, anyone? From being a dim sum and siopao supplier to having its own restaurant, Taitong Steamer Foods has fed many Cebuanos for many years now and there’s no question why patrons come flocking to this unassuming food joint—it just has honest-to-goodness great eats. Here are five reasons why everyone should go to Taitong.
1 SIOPAO FOR DAYS
Taitong Steamer Foods is famous for its siopao. Its steamed buns are filled with—get this—both asado and bola-bola. There’s no need to choose from these two delicious fillings! Add some Chinese sausage, siomai and humba in and this siopao is packed with flavor at every bite. Taitong also went even further with this Cebuano snack favorite— it’s fried. It doesn’t get any better than that!
2 MORE YUMMY FOOD!
Just when one thought Taitong already had it made with the siopao, it gives diners a whole menu of short orders and dim sum. It has so many Chinese dishes to choose from, but most notable would be its hakaw, quail egg siomai, salt and pepper spare ribs and the golden salted egg squid. These just make for a satiating meal. Burp!
3 HOMEY VIBE
One goes to Taitong for the food, but eating there gives one a feeling of being at home. It may be because of the radio blasting songs from a local station or the wooden furniture or perhaps the friendly “ate” who serves up the food with smiles and all—it all just makes one want to come back for more.
4 AFFORDABLE EATS
Compared to most Chinese food restaurants, Taitong has a relatively affordable menu which means that one can probably be able to eat a whole lot without burning a hole in one’s wallet. Affordable, delicious food— this is probably the best phrase anyone who loves to eat would want to hear.
5 AUTHENTIC TO THE TASTE
Key ingredients like spices and soy sauce are imported from Singapore and Malaysia to have that accurate taste in Taitong’s dishes. Serving up quality food is key, which just shows how this holein-the-wall restaurant cares for its patrons by serving them only the best dishes from the kitchen.
