After killing it on stage, they enjoyed local fast food chain Jollibee, with Giselle and Karina sharing their honest reviews with MYs online.

1. Giselle

First up, Giselle is a fan of Jollibee’s staple dish, Chickenjoy. Like others who tried it for the first time, she regretted not asking for more gravy. After all, it pairs perfectly with rice.

Next time I’d get extra gravy…why is the gravy so good.

— Giselle

A single serving of Chickenjoy with rice—sans drinks—costs ₱82 pesos (around $1.47 USD).

The aespa rapper first heard about Jollibee from a friend of hers from the United States who gushed about it often.

Hi Manila. I want Jollibee. My Filipina friend used to talk about Jollibee. I’m here now. I wanna understanddd.

— Giselle

2. Karina

Karina is another member who had to try Jollibee’s famous chicken. Based on the photo she shared with MYs, she added a peach mango pie to her order, a ₱48 pesos ($0.86 USD) dessert filled with local fruits.

She also tried the Jolly Spaghetti which is known for its uniquely sweet Filipino taste. An ala carte version of this starts at ₱59 pesos ($1 USD).

The Jolly Hotdog was another menu item that she tasted, a classic snack that retails for ₱84 pesos ($1.51 USD). It comes with sweet tomato sauce and is smothered in grated cheese.

Finally, though Karina does not usually like eating hamburgers, she couldn’t resist the ones from the Filipino fast food chain. She enjoyed the crispy french fries that it came with as well. The staple hamburger of Jollibee is the Yumburger which features a beef patty and special mayonnaise sauce. With fries and a drink, it is sold for ₱102 pesos (1.83 USD).
