Jollibee @ EDSA Extension, Pasay City, Metro Manila

Jollibee (4 April, 2017)


Jollibee is a fast food restaurant chain in the Philippines. Founded in Quezon City on 28 January, 1978, the chain now has some 3,000 outlets not only in the Philippines, but also in Singapore, Brunei, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and the United States. The restaurant is quite ubiquitous in the Philippines, especially in Metro Manila, where it seems to appear in every street corner.

Among the items available at Jollibee include burger, hot dog, spaghetti and fried chicken. The restaurant seems to borrow or localize what is also available in other fast food restaurants, giving it an Asian twist. For example, the burger steak is burger served with rice. Then there's also the tuna pie. Jollibee's fried chicken is available in two versions, original and hot-and-spicy, which is similar to other chains.

I had the opportunity of trying out Jollibee for the first time on my recent visit to the Philippines. I was staying at Hotel 101, and there is a Jollibee outlet along Epifanio de los Santos Avenue Extension right next door (GPS: 14.53561, 120.98768). On our first evening, event organiser KF Seetoh treated us to a dinner at Jollibee, saying that it is one of those items on the been-there-done-that list for visitors to the Philippines. I did enjoy the fried chicken from Jollibee, though I did not care much for the burger steak served with rice. The French fries are served with a sprinkling of curry powder, so it has a spicy twist to it.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
