After much insisting from people of the Filipino persuasion, I finally gave this place a second chance. The first time I tried the chicken from Jollibee in San Francisco, I didn't see what the big deal was...I thought they should have changed the name to Regularbee.
So I was a little hesitant, but super hungry and ready to rip this place apart with my preconceived notions. But once I bit into that chicken, my mind was definitely changed. OHHHH so this is what it's supposed to taste like? Okay NOW I get the hype.
Though there were a couple things I didn't like - they forgot some of the stuff we ordered with our meal and didn't give us extra utensils (it's not that big of a deal but we ordered enough for 4 people and only got one fork), so we kept having to check to see if we had all our food and went back up to the dude a couple times. Also the drink station and dining area was a little messy and unkept...the workers were bringing out food to people so I'm sure at least one of the many saw the state of things and clearly did not care.
All in all, I'd say my chicken was a redeemer. If I ever stop by here again I'd take the food to go.
