    Real talk: Jollibee got their roots on wherever there are much Filipino expats and workers.
    Most Filipinos who flock to Jollibee in abroad were because of three reasons: The taste of Jollibee products, longing and homesickness for the Philippines, and opportunities to socialize with fellow countrymen, as traditionally, Jollibee was mostly social outing in our country, not regular fare as the West, but rare treats a family can afford sometimes.
    Look at the opening of a foreign branch, 80%of them lining up are Filipinos, the rest are half-foreigns or foreigners either craving for something different or curious ones.
    Jollibee Foods Corporation not only runs Jollibee, they also run Greenwich (pizzas and pastas), Chowking (fast Chinese food), Mang Inasal (roast chicken), Red Ribbon (cake and bakery), majority of Burger King franchises in the Philippines, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (cafe). They also run some of the known brands in abroad in countries like China, US and Canada.

    2. Chickey Joy is smaller
    3. Spaghetti's sauce is too little, it don't even cover for the whole pasta and there's no way we can dunk the chicken on it because then there won't be enough sauce for the pasta
    4. Lastly, no adobo rice here! A native famous dish in the Philippines.

    Hi I am a Filipino and I've seen this menu to be a bit weird because the menus are totally different and more Americanized than here in the Philippines. In Philippines, we also has a side called pancit palabok, which has some orange sauced noodles. We don't have any Chicken Tenders, but its so very sad to see that you guys didn't try the real signature burger of Jollibee, which is the Champ, which the Burger patty is triple the times bigger than the Yumburger with Lettuce cheese and tomato alongside with special sauce. The Peach mango pie that shown here has its other variations like the Tuna Pie and the Ube Pie, which I think varies through season. Even though the Chicken sandwich in Jollibee here was new to our menu, we love it though

Jollibee is already having trouble with the fact that most Filipinos can only afford fast food once a month, plus the rising prices of chicken and such. If they raise the prices too high, no one would come and they wouldn't profit lol.

    I used to live in NYC and there was a Jolliebee that was close enough for me to go to, but now that I'm in a different state, the closest one is THREE HOURS away by car. So I wrote to the Jolliebee corporation and begged them to at least set up a restaurant in the closest city to where I live. They said they'll consider it but that was a few years back and before pandemic happened. I really miss Jolliebee!

Idk if they give extras over there but in the Philippines, gravy is a free refill, so we usually just douse our chicken with it.

      And I don't think I've seen any Chicken Sandwiches yet either. But hopefully one day! At least we have a Jollibee though. And they've expanded so much in the Greater Toronto Area these past couple of years.
