FOOD in the Philippines

Food is essential to all things living and as being
here in the Philippines could be anything from High
end to Low end depending of financial background that
is. This post will explore the realm of Filipino food
from the Famous to the infamous. To the popular and
the less popular if there is such, Basically from a
dinner’s point of view of course depending on my budget.

My First Stop is Fast Food.
If your ask a child. What do you want to go and eat?
Chances are the child would say "Jollibee".....
Indeed Jollibee is a big name in the Philippines.
In fact its a leader in fast food in the Philippines.


Growing up in the 80’s I remember seeing Jollibee ads
on tv. I would directly ask my mom to buy me some of
those. Unfortunately during 80’s there weren’t really
that many branch store in the province, Mactan Island
in particular you need to go first to Cebu and that
would take for ever.
One of the secret of Jollibee's success story can be
trace to how it present itself to the public "fun and
happy ads" Are just one of the key elements to it’s
success. And the price cater common people. And the
result is that everywhere you go "Jollibee" branch is
just around a corner, it's already a house hold name.
