'Joey's Blog': Crispy Chicken

Showing posts with label Crispy Chicken. Show all posts

If you think that Kentucky chicken is the best chicken in the world, then you are wrong! I found another competitor which has the same chicken size but the meat is so much tender and less greasy!

Thanks to Stella, she recommended me to this fast food restaurant located at lucky plaza. Jollibee is the largest fast food chain in the Philippines, with 780 stores nationwide; it has planted its roots across the globe with a total of 872 branches across South East Asia, the Middle East and North America till date. Continuing to spread the joy, it opens its first store in Singapore on 12 March 2013.

And this is what I got for my first Jollibee experience: Jollibee’s signature fried chicken Chickenjoy with Spaghetti set (comes with a soda) for $6.10.

The food tastes better than it looks. The fried chicken is really nice — the batter is crispy, and not too heavy or salty. The meat, compared to other fast food fried chicken, is relatively moist and tender.

The little tub of brown gravy is similar to KFC’s gravy for whipped potato, but it’s thinner. If you order the fried chicken with rice, you’re supposed to mix the gravy with the rice.

The spaghetti seems geared more towards kiddy tastebuds. The sauce — similar to those supermarket bottled variety — is a little too sweet for my liking. The hotdog and ham slices are pretty meh. But the noodles has good texture. It was al dente and didn’t turn soggy.

Jollibee is on level 6 of Lucky Plaza (aka Little Philippines). Take the glass elevators on the ground floor atrium to level 6. Jollibee is just directly in front of the lift lobby.
