Jollibee Philippines | Food at Jollibee in the Philippines - Part 3: Breakfast and Desserts

Starting Where We Left Off

To begin our series, we started with Food at Jollibee in the Philippines - Part 1: Traditional American Food , including burgers, chicken and more. Then, we moved on to Food at Jollibee in the Philippines - Part 2: Traditional Filipino Food, including an assortment of noodles and the staple rice dishes. Now in Part 3, we get to the really good stuff: Breakfast and Desserts.

Breakfast: The Most Important Meal of the Day

Now there’s nothing better than eggs and rice combined with some type of Filipino-style breakfast meat. And that’s exactly what Jollibee has to offer. On one hand we have the special sweet sausage known as Longganisa served with a fried egg and side of fried rice. On the other hand we have my personal favorite breakfast: Corned Beef with a fried egg and fried rice. These two are easily my favorites, but let’s not forget the beef side of things. Jolibee also offers the beef tapa with side of rice as well as the burger steak, but dressed up in breakfast form. If you prefer a hot dog for breakfast instead, you also have that choice. Now to go back to the American side of the kitchen, Jollibee serves Breakfast Joys pancakes. Not quite the International House of Pancakes, but if you want a sweet morning sensation, you’ve found a winner!

Desserts: The Final Say

Keeping in their tradition of creative branding of their food, Jollibee has deemed desserts “Jolly Zerts.” Now this section makes me recall my childhood memories of stopping at DQ for blizzards and sundaes. For those of you unfamiliar with DQ, I’m talking about the great American chain known as Dairy Queen. To start with the basics, Jollibee offers simple soft serve ice cream with a variety of toppings: chocolate syrup, brownie chunks and caramel bars. Now to get a bit more Filipino, they also offer “Ice Craze” which is basically rebranded “Halo-Halo” (no not the video game), but the traditional Filipino shaved ice dessert. You can get the Ice Craze with corn and cornflakes or with the beautifully purple ube and cheese. Personally, I don’t eat things purple, but I know that ube is hugely popular in the Philippines.

Wrap-Up

Well, that pretty much does it for our 3 part series. I don’t know about you, but writing all this made me pretty hungry. Hopefully if you’re reading this, you’re close enough to your local Jollibee to satisfy that hybrid American-Filipino appetite of yours!
