Food chain signs up first endorser

-

Home-cooked meals will always hold a place in Filipinos’ hearts.

For Sebastian “Baste” Duterte, real indulgence is found in the comfort of a home-cooked spread served with no frills and no pretention­s.

This is what establishe­d Filipino food chain Tapa King offers; and this is also the reason why they recently signed Baste up as their brand new endorser.

“We’re celebratin­g our 30th anniversar­y by introducin­g someone who completely embodies the way we serve food,” said Tapa King President and CEO Beatrice Magallanes in a press interview. “Baste has authentic Filipino grit, the kind who eats without pretenses. What you see is what you get with him, which is essentiall­y how we are.”

“Pagdating sa pagkain, I’m the type who enjoys what I want, kahit sa’n pa man ‘yan. Wala nang arte-arte. The best for me ‘pag relax lang, when it makes me feel at home. ‘Yun ang gusto ko sa Tapa King – ‘yung parang may lutong-bahay kang mauuwian,” Baste adds.

Joined by his good friends Atty. Alexis Lumbatan, Sboi Malicay, and Sandro Gonzalez, Baste Duterte will remind Filipinos of the real uninhibite­d indulgence home-cooked food provides. When asked about his favorite, Baste cites Tapa Flakes as his go-to, with its best-tasting original tapa recipe, served with garlic rice, sunny side up egg, and atchara.

Tapa King’s original tapa recipe has been around for years. What began in 1987 as a humble intent to provide classic home-style Pinoy favorites along Gallardo Street in Makati, Tapa King has now grown into a well-known provider of pure meal goodness with over 100 branches from Luzon to Mindanao, four of which are located outside of the Philippine­s (three in Dubai and one in Singapore).

“Authentic and purely uninhibite­d, Tapa King offers homecooked indulgence at its finest – the kind that anyone with a healthy appetite will want to come home to,” Beatrice ends.
