| - I waited in line for about 15 mins. I refused to wait in line longer for fast food. And I was right to do so. The good : staff was super friendly and helpful, place was clean and atmosphere fun and inviting. The bad: was all the hype worth it? A big NO. The chicken was fresh, crispy and juicy, but tasteless. Seriously needed some seasoning. The spicy chicken was too spicy for me, but some may enjoy it. The spaghetti was hit or miss. You either love it or not. If you like sweet spaghetti with hotdogs, you may enjoy it. If you're used to the traditional Italian fare, you will hate it. The mango pie is tasty, the dough is crispy and a bit chewy. Closer to the Popeyes pie than the Mcdonalds one. Unfortunately, smaller than most pies - disappointing. The burger parties and rice were ok. Nothing special. Portions small, but the gravy on top was decent. The Palabook was tasty, but the noodles a bit soggy. The fries, just ok, I prefer Mcdonalds or Swiss Chalet better. To be fair, I've spoken with Filipino friends of mine who have agreed that the food tastes different in the Phillipines and even in the USA. Not sure why, but I understand. LAST BUT not least is the price. For what you get, the value is horrible. I was willing to pay $70 to try it out, but never again. Chicken is cheaper and better at the competition.And did I mention they only sell the chicken in pieces of 6? So you either get buckets in multiples of 6 or single person combos with sides. You cannot buy single pieces of chicken to add to the bucket or order. Overall, I know most fast food places have rising prices, but at least you don't have to wait in line in a tent to get it. Tip, if you get he chicken, get the gravy to dip so that you have more flavor in the chicken.
