Kaldereta is a popular Filipino stew that is typically made with beef or goat, and at Pinoy Tambayan, we use beef as the primary ingredient. The dish is cooked in a rich and flavorful tomato-based sauce, with vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and bell peppers added to give it texture and flavor.

While kaldereta is often served at special occasions and gatherings, it is also a common dish in many Filipino households. The flavor profile of kaldereta is similar to other beef stews, but the use of fish sauce and liver paste gives it a unique taste. Some variations of kaldereta may include other ingredients like olives or peas, but at Pinoy Tambayan, we stick to a traditional recipe that is sure to please.

It's worth noting that some Filipino dishes, like sisig and bopis, are usually made with pork in other restaurants, but at Pinoy Tambayan, we substitute pork with beef or chicken to cater to our no-pork policy. Kaldereta, on the other hand, is typically made with beef or goat, so no substitution is needed. If you're planning to serve kaldereta at your next big gathering, consider pairing it with steamed rice or a side of mixed vegetables for a well-rounded meal.

Ordering For Large Groups

When ordering for large groups and parties at Pinoy Tambayan, it is essential to consider the serving sizes of our dishes. Our kaldereta, a classic Filipino beef stew, is a popular choice for big groups. Typically, kaldereta is made with beef and vegetables in a tomato-based sauce. The dish is often served with steamed rice, which helps to soak up the flavorful sauce.

For other dishes, such as tocino and longganisa, it is worth noting that these are usually made with pork in other restaurants. However, at Pinoy Tambayan, we use beef instead, as we do not serve pork. This substitution allows our customers to enjoy these traditional Filipino dishes without the use of pork.

When ordering for large groups, we recommend considering the number of guests and the serving sizes of each dish. A general rule of thumb is to order a few dishes that can be shared among the group, such as our kaldereta, adobo, and sinigang. We also offer a variety of appetizers and snacks, including siomai and lumpiang shanghai, which are usually made with pork in other restaurants, but are made with beef or chicken at Pinoy Tambayan.
