Chickenjoy and Sweet Spaghetti at Jollibee

Filippino fast food restaurant Jollibee opened last year in the Chicago suburb of Skokie to long lines and long waits. We finally tried their Chickenjoy fried chicken with brown gravy, Sweet Spaghetti, and Peach Mango Pies.

Chickenjoy is good fried chicken, maybe not to the level served at the various Paula Deen restaurants but very tasty nonetheless, especially when doused in the brown gravy. Sweet Spaghetti is very reminiscent of Spaghetti-o's, and includes meat sauce and slices of hot dogs. The Peach Mango Pie is similar to McDonald's apple pie with a more tropical flavor.

They have some other ethnic Filippino menu items that I would like to try, so I hope to be returning sometime soon!
