BC’s first Jollibee opens in Vancouver

Jollibee opened its first-ever B.C. location in Vancouver on Friday, February 25th.

Vancouverites lined up outside of the Granville St location for 4 hours+, for the 9:00 am grand-opening. One die-hard fan had been lined up outside since 8:30 pm, Thursday night.

The popular Filipino fast-food chain has a cult-like following, known for its Jolly Crispy Fried Chicken.

Vancouver is late to the trend, there are over 1,400 Jollibee restaurants worldwide, with outlets across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, East Asia, North America, and Europe.

Delicious fried food isn’t the only thing the Filipino chain is known for. The Jollibee (Jollibee’s mascot) beats out Ronald Mcdonald and the Burger King by a long run.

If Jollibee Vancouver is hiring for a mascot, where can I submit my resume?

Jollibee and his crew of friends have a TV series called Jollitown, which is currently in its sixth season.

I’m going to let the crowd sizes settle down before I visit the new downtown Vancouver location. But when I do get the chance to try out the chain, what am I supposed to order?

Jollibee is known for its unique menu, serving dishes like Tuna pastry, Pineapple burgers and spaghetti. This can be overwhelming for a simple-minded Canadian like myself.

Through some extensive and very important research, I’ve concluded what to order at Jollibee (First-timers edition)

Peach Mango Pie

A flakey buttery exterior filled with sweet creamy fruit. It’s like the tropical (and better) cousin of the Mcdonald’s apple pie.

ChickenJoy

There’s nothing better than a bucket of chicken. KFC and Churches better move over, because Jollibee’s ChickenJoy buckets are officially in town. Jollibee’s chicken is known to be more flavorful and juicy than any other fast-food fried chicken. The bucket comes with a silky-rich gravy to accompany your crispy chicken.
