Burgers are SOOOOO mediocre, atleast the last 2 years when I went to the PI. Chicken Joy is solid though. If something's opening up here, I'd really want Chow King or Shakey's (though Shakey's is American). When I was last there, they had these Apple Pie looking thingies that were filled with Tuna, I really wish I could just give one of them to someone at a mcdonalds and see their reaction.

a tad more sugar, THICKER more tomato pastey, and as Ant said, hotdogs. It's pretty good. EVERY FAST FOOD place in the Philippines has spaghetti, KFC, Mcdonalds, Burger King...... There's no place that doesn't serve it. Also, it's like a $1 - $1.50 (50-75 pesos)for a plate too.

I'm sure the Woodside menu is gonna be different. We've been waiting for Jolliebee to open since the planned October date. Everything is diff over there, like KFC has rice and no biscuits, gravy is different, but still good, portions are smaller. McDonald's breakfast sandwiches are on different types of bread than here. It has to be a similar transition here.

Went 2 weeks ago, just posting the pics. FYI, really was nothing special IMO, but again, I'm a Chow King guy, not a Jollibee guy.
