Fiesta Noodles
- Dubbed "Fiesta Noodles" for American palates, the chain does a pretty decent job of recreating pancit palabok -- a Filipino favorite of rice noodles doused in garlic sauce, chopped pork, shrimp, slices of hard-boiled eggs and parsley flakes.
- A burger with a beef patty topped with a thick pineapple ring and an inglorious amount of bacon. Basically Jollibee's interpretation of the whopper but better. Oh so much better.
- It's important to note that Filipino spaghetti is loaded with banana ketchup, which gives it a distinct extra sweet taste. Jollibee's version of this features their own sweet spaghetti sauce packed with chopped up ham, sausage, ground beef and melted cheese. Then there's the fact that they serve fried chicken. Seriously. Heaven has landed.

For example, the fast food chain's $1 any size coffee will save customers anywhere from $84-$93 over four months. McDonald's is also lowering the price of their small specialty hot drinks to $2, which will save customers about $109-$140 over a period of four months.
Savings are calculated for someone buying coffee five days a week from January through April. The pricing is compared to that of competitors' regular coffee and popular small specialty hot beverages (lattes, mochas, and hot chocolates).

Did You Know - Eel Edition
What Are The Differences Between Freshwater And Seawater Eel?
There are two types of eel prepared in Japanese cuisine — unagi (freshwater eel) and anago (seawater eel). The former is what the majority of people would immediately associate with “eel” — it’s found in virtually every sushi establishment nationwide. But it’s not to be confused with its seawater counterpart; there are a number of differences.
Differences between the two species of eel center on both taste and texture. “Unagi is always richer and fattier than anago,” says Masashi Ito, chef and owner of NYC hot spot Sushi Zo. “Anago tends to be leaner but it’s very fluffy.” Chef Isao Yamada of the city’s acclaimed restaurant Brushstroke agrees. “Anago can be bland compared to rich unagi, but it has a delicate and light flavor,” he says.
