- (PvF) Have you ever heard of Jollibee before?
- Never.
- No.
- I've heard of it, but I've never seen one before.
- (John) Jollibee, the world's greatest...
- My boy, John Oliver.
- John Oliver's great.
- (John) Jollibee can promise you happiness.
- Oh, he can promise you happiness. Okay, then I'll be happy.
- Oh my gosh, I just saw this!
(Jay laughs)
- Go off!
- This Jollibee is getting sexy.
- (John) Yes please.
- Yes please!
- Wow, Jollibee character can dance better than I can. (laughs)
- (PvF) Jollibee is a wildly popular Filipino fast food chain
with more than 1200 locations worldwide,
and today we're gonna be trying it.
- That's fun, alright man, let's run it.
- Great!
- I always wanted to try it,
but no one has told me like what to get.
- Oh, it kinda looks like something from KFC.
- Chicken! Chicken, spicy!
- Presentation's fire.
- (PvF) So first up, we have Chickenjoy.
Chickenjoy is basically the Filipino counterpart to KFC,
but it's so much better.
It's described as being perfectly seasoned
to be crispylicious on the outside and juicylicious on the inside.
- Mmm.
- (PvF) Plus it's called Chickenjoy, so how could you not love that?
- It smells great.
- I've never had deep fried chicken before.
- Juicylicious? We'll see.
- On chicken, you gotta go for the skin first.
- This is great!
- It's the perfect amount of crunchiness.
- That is juicylicious!
- Okay.
I'm moving to the Philippines. I'm having kids there.
I have to start a whole new life, just because of this.
- It tastes like a chicken nugget, but like on a stick.
On a bone. (laughs) There we go, not a stick.
- We're gonna try spicy.
I'm scared if it's gonna be like really, really, spicy, okay.
So good, oh!
- Oh, this one's really good.
- It's actually not that spicy.
It's just like peppery.
- I ain't gonna lie, this is killing KFC though.
- Delicious, whoa, it's coming back. Spiciness is kicking in!
- Oh wow, now it's getting kinda spicy. (laughs)
- There is some spice, wow! That was like a really delayed,
it didn't hit me with the spice until just now.
- I would rate this a 7, because the flavor is really nice,
it's seasoned very well.
- I would rate this an 8.
- 10 out of 10, because it's so good!
- Like an 8.
- I would give this a 10 out of 10.
If it was one more, I would give it 11 out of 10.
It makes you wanna move to the Philippines.
- (PvF) In 2017, Jollibee marketing went viral,
not for its beloved mascot, but for a video series called Kwentong
centered around a Valentine's Day and love.
- Hmm.
- Oh, excuse you.
- So busy enjoying this Jollibee's, I didn't see you!
- Cute, cute!
- He loves a woman that can eat, you could tell.
- How did he get that in her locker?
- I want a guy that will do that for me.
Where do I find one of these guys?
- Oh no!
- Cheering for you too. Aw man!
- Yeah, now's your chance. Now's your chance!
- Oh my God, they're meeting at last.
- She's like my hero, ew, go away!
- Maybe talk to her in person, that would help.
- If that's the end, oh okay, I was about to say.
That better not be the end.
- Oh my God, is this the reunion?
- Wait, is this when they're older?
- (gasps) Oh!
- If a guy will bring me food,
I will instantly fall in love with him.
- That's love.
- For those who didn't give up on love.
Celebrate the joy of love!
- That's so cute!
- That was emotional.
- That was fire.
- That was awful!
- (PvF) We have the classic Yumburger with Jollibee's special sauce,
one of the initial food items sold by Jollibee,
and their first flagship product.
- Does it come with a guy?
- Awesome.
- The cheesy Yumburger.
- Ooh, a Yumburger.
This reminds me so much of McDonald's.
- And I bet it's even better.
- I like the sauce, first thing you taste is the sauce.
- It's nice, it's like a, ooh.
- I'm not like a big sauce person, but I like a little sauce.
- It's a nice sweet aioli.
- Oh my gosh, look at that sauce!
- I would add extra sauce to dip it.
- It tastes like frosting. (laughs)
- Dang.
- I don't think this sauce really goes well on a burger.
- Hello, Prince Charming?
He's not here, so, that's a downside of the burger.
- I would give this...
- A 9 out of 10.
- I would give it like an 8.
- Maybe an 8, let's go 8.
All it is is meat, cheese, and the sauce with a bun,
and it's really flavorful.
- I would rank this as a 4,
because, I don't know, I was expecting more.
- I would rate this an 8 out of 10.
You could tell that there is no cap in my rap
on if it was good or not.
- Ooh!
- Oh!
- No idea what this is about to be.
- They sell spaghetti? What the heck?
- (PvF) The legendary Jolly Spaghetti
features noodles, ground meat, sliced hot dogs,
and their signature sweet sauce made with banana ketchup.
- Those things are all things that made sense individually,
but together...
- Hot dog pasta. How can you go wrong?
But then with the banana ketchup, a little sweet flavor in there.
Hmm, it's gonna be interesting.
- Ooh see, you know how bananas are strong, like,
you get a banana in a smoothie and you're killing everybody in there.
- A full thing of spaghetti? At a fast food place?
- I like sweet things, but, I don't know about
with my spaghetti.
- It's actually not bad.
- It kinda tastes like a teriyaki sauce.
- I hate that I gotta be like the Simon Cowell of this right now, but...
- The sauce is peculiar, hmm.
- I think having the hot dogs in it makes it seem more fast food like.
- Throw a little red pepper in, that's all it needs,
some red crushed flakes.
- Yeah, my brain is confused
because it thinks it's gonna go towards the tomato side,
but it stays a little lighter.
- I would rate this probably like a 5.
- I'll give this a 9 out of 10.
- I'd probably rank this like a 6.
It still tastes good, like it doesn't taste bad,
I just probably wouldn't order it.
- I'd rate this a 6.
- Not my favorite, I'd say like a 6.5.
- It hurts my heart, but then it doesn't,
because it's just like, food gotta touch your heart.
- It's like a mystery surprise. Oh!
- What is it?
- Shrimp? Is that an egg?
- And it smells so good.
- What is happening right now in my life?
- (PvF) So this dish is called Pancit Palabok.
It's also known as Fiesta Noodles.
It's a classic Filipino dish that comes with an array of toppings.
Glass noodles are peppered with a garlic sauce,
crushed pork rinds, shrimp and egg for a party like no other.
- There's a lot going on here.
- (PvF) Have you ever seen something like this before?
- Never.
- Cool, alright.
- You're kidding me, correct?
- It tastes kinda bland.
- Yeah, I don't really like this one.
- This is so good.
- That is kind of disgusting.
- That's pretty good, I like the garlic sauce.
That is very nice.
- I think it's like the noodles and the sauce.
- The glass noodles are so cool!
It's like little jellyfish, ah!
- I'm not like a huge fan of any of the things that are on this.
- It's just not happening. Not doing it for me, nope.
- And this, this looks like it would be served
at a nice restaurant, not a fast food place.
- Maybe like a 5.
- I'll give this a 7.
- 10 out of 10. (laughs) I give this a 10 out of 10.
- You know, flavor gotta kick you, like pow, it's not kicking me.
- I would rate this a 3. It's a bit out there.
- I would rate this a 7.
The garlic sauce really tips this one over the edge for me.
- Sorry Chick-fil-A, my new favorite fast food restaurant.
- Okay.
- What else could they possibly serve at this place?
- Ah.
This is more my alley right here.
- Okay, we have like some type of mushroom patty?
- (PvF) This is a savory sweet beef burger patty
that's smothered with mushroom gravy and served with a scoop of rice
for a dish simply named Burger Steak.
- Burger Steak? Hmm, I love it.
- Oh my gosh, I can't believe this is hamburger.
- The rice is amazing, of course.
- Gravy, gravy me any day.
- I like this, it's nice and simple.
It's meat, rice.
- The sauce is really good and flavorful.
- Yeah, I will definitely be getting this.
- After your workout meal, you know?
Like this would really, it's bulking season, like okay.
- This is really good actually.
This is something that I could eat
and not feel too guilty about, as well.
- It reminds me of some type of like dish I had
in elementary school for some reason.
- It's like a prepackaged meal.
- Let's do a little dance, I like this!
- I would rate this an 8.5, because it's kind of guilt-free.
- I'll rate this an 8, 'cause first off, it's different.
Nobody's coming with a Burger Steak.
- A 6.
- Probably 7. It's pretty good, it's not bad.
- I give it a 10 now, it's growing on me.
- This is 10 out of 10. Amazing.
- Every bite feels like somebody's just like saying take one more.
- Solid TV dinner for sure.
- I just need some alone time with this.
- (laughs) Thank you. - (PvF) There you go.
- I've seen where he came to McDonald's and was like okay.
- (PvF) Finally, we have Jollibee's Ube Pie,
similarly portable like McDonald's Apple Pie,
but filled with the earthy, sweet, and stunning purple yam called Ube.
- Are you kidding me?
This is like a treat that you would get at Disneyland.
- I feel like this is like straight off
the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
- Okay.
Very crunchy.
- It's not like too sweet, it's the right amount.
- It tastes like a carrot.
- It tastes like a custard, flaky donut.
- Aw man, the outside is fantastic.
- This crust that they use is so delicious.
- It's sweet, but it's not like so sweet that I feel like oversugared.
- That's the last color you would expect to be in a pie, purple?
- But the yam is really good.
I wouldn't expect that.
- I would give this an 8, because you know, it's delicious.
- I would rate this a 7.
- A 7.
- 9 out of 10. 9 out of 10.
- I would rate this a 5, because...
- Personally, I'm not a big sweets man.
- There is a lot of yam in there.
- Jollibee is top tier fast food.
I just got put on, I didn't know about this until today,
and I am completely sold.
- To sum it all up, like it, try it, do it.
It's amazing.
- So we've tried this, but what do you guys think?
