Season 3 Episode 18

​​​​

Jollibee feat. Jason Patrick Galit (JPG)

​

In this episode of Fine Dining: The Search for the Most Mediocre Restaurant in America:

​

â—‹ Part 1: This week, we dive into the sweet, crunchy, culturally iconic legacy of Jollibee, the Filipino fast food chain with a bee mascot, a cult following, and a spaghetti recipe that would confuse most Americans. But to millions of Filipinos, it’s more than just a restaurant—it’s home.

Joining me is Jason Patrick Galit (JPG) from InterMyth, who grew up with Jollibee and has the love to prove it. From his first spaghetti to a fried chicken hand towel, this episode is deeply personal as he offers a lot of amazing insights into Jollibee's cultural significance.

​

â—‹ Part 2: This week, we're putting Jollibee through the Chili’s Test. From sweet pies that taste like vacation to spaghetti that... didn’t, we finally try the food and decide whether this beloved Filipino chain lives up to its reputation. With special guest Jason Patrick Galit (JPG) guiding the way, we get the full experience, even if we have to be Sweaty Little Boys in the process.

It’s juicy fried chicken, a peach mango hand pie that has haunted my dreams (in a good way though), and one very loud iPad kid.
