TanganTangan Grill opened on June 27 at the LeoPalace Resort Guam, occupying the space of the former Eataliano Restaurant.
The restaurant is inspired by the tree of its namesake. Specifically to honor its role in supporting local agriculture, sustainability, and aiding in land restoration efforts. TanganTangan Grill sources its ingredients locally. It said that by doing this, it ensures that each meal is not only tasty, but “strengthens the bonds within our island family.”
Sous Chef Eddie Chen will oversee the restaurant and is open now for dinner from 5 to 9 p.m. Its menu features a wide selection of BBQ’ed meat like steak, brisket, chicken, and ribs as well as local classics like haggon suni, latiya, and chalakiles. mbj
