Poll of the Day > Has anyone tried Jollibee?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The Filipino fast food place

Ive wanted to try it for a long time but the closest one is like a 4 1/2 hour drive away from me. I love road trips but it would be an all day thing. Curious how good the actual food is

Did you get the idea from my post in the other thread? Lol
I haven't tried it but my Filipino co-worker said the Chump Burger is great.

I'm 100% Filipino so, yes.

It's pretty good, though I'm saying that mostly because the tastes remind me of home.

Objectively speaking, it's pretty much on the same level as Popeye's or KFC, except they also serve burgers and spaghetti. (It always gives me a kick whenever someone unfamiliar sees the menu for the first time.)

If you're going, try the spaghetti at least. It's Filipino style, which is a bit sweeter than regular tomato sauce.

If you do go, find something else to do in the area, so you don't just do 9 hours of driving for some fast food. >_>

It sounds really interesting, Im hoping they continue to expand here in the US

Good idea, theres one in Chicago and Ive never been there, could make it an overnight trip

Haha, the closest one to me seems to be in Houston, which almost across the entire state from me. Google said it's nearly an 11 hour drive.

Their fried chicken and spaghetti are pretty good.
---

I've never been to one in the US, but I loved how cheap the food at Jollibee in the Philippines.

We had a filipino restaurant near where I grew up, and it was pretty good. They had an excellent buffet, and these fatty/sweet sausages that were pretty good even if you didn't like fatty things
