Chicken Joy - This word automatically lights my eyes up and makes me picture the Philippines. Every time I go back home to the Philippines, I must make a stop at Jollibee. Over in the Philippines, Jollibee is the leading fast food restaurant. They serve your traditional burger and fries, but the gem here is the fried chicken known as Chicken Joy. The chicken is served with rice and brown gravy. Already, you can tell that Jollibee isn’t your traditional fast food spot.
You don’t have to travel to the Philippines to get a taste of Jollibee. They have expanded their operations and have opened branches in the United States. The Union City, CA branch is the closest to where I live. If you are close to one of their branches, you can try their fried chicken. Another recommendation to try is the spaghetti. They add a twist to the spaghetti, making it Filipino style, which has a much sweeter flavor to it.
Did I mention that the desserts are tasty too? The Peach Mango Pie puts McDonald’s Apple Pies to shame. And if pies aren’t your thing, cool off with some Halo-Halo. So, if you’re short on time and have to grab fast food, Jollibee’s variety in its offerings just might make it your pick.
It’s a spot for dates because…
Jollibee’s menu offerings are a nice change from the traditional fast food spots.

I think Jollibee makes some of the best fried chicken in the Bay Area. Forget those American chains, Jollibee is where it’s at! Their fried chicken is the closest to how they do it back in Malaysia. Pretty pricey, but oh, so worth it.
There is a Jollibee here in San Jose, pretty close to our house. Yeah!
