Trying Jollibee for the First Time

from "Fine" Dining Hosted by Michael Ornelas

🍑 Better Than Chili's? We Finally Taste Jollibee 🍗 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. 🍗 Fried Chicken That's "Better Than It Should Be" 🥭 A Hand Pie So Good It's Worth a Detour 🍝 Spaghetti That Scared Michael, Then Surprised Him 📱 iPad Kid & The Chuck E.

We are Ash and Katy, this is our podcast, Always the Last to Know! Growing up we were taught how to live in the world, everything was going fine…until literally, the entire world changed, thus making everything we had learned essentially obsolete. Needless to say, Mr. Feeny and Cory Matthews did not prepare us for social media takeovers, taxes, or making our way through an insane world where an entire generation is trauma bonded.It feels like we missed entire lessons on things so the goal is to fill in the gaps of our education- from discussions on current laws to clones, from N.A.T.O to what's hidden under melting glaciers, join us while we attempt to navigate our way through the world, figure out adulthood, and hopefully learn something new along the way!
