Jollibee
Chicago has two locations (one in Albany Park and one in the Loop) of the Philippines’ most popular fast-food chain, Jollibee. The signature dishes here are Yumburgers (a cheeseburger with special dressing), Chickenjoy fried chicken, pancit palabok, and their Jolly Spaghetti: pasta covered in a sweet tomato sauce with ground beef and hot dogs. Pasta snobs might pass out immediately at the sight of it, but it’s a classic. The food here is just ok, but if you’re curious about one of the best fast-food chicken sandwiches and their iconic bee mascot, then it’s worth a trip through the drive-thru. Definitely also pickup a mango hand pie—you’ll never order a McDonald’s apple pie ever again.
