What Happened to Jollibee's Chicken Joy?

I was so hungry yesterday that I couldn't think of a better place to dine in after work. So I headed to Jollibee. It was a Sunday, and it's the closest I can afford to go to, aside from 7-11 and Mini-stop. I ordered Creamy Macaroni Soup because I am craving for something hot. I aked the crew if there was available thigh part for the chicken joy. Unfortunately, there's none. Because I felt like there's nothing more filling than rice and something else, I ordered the (in)famous chickenjoy, even if it's not the specific part I wanted. When it was served, it looked horrible. Not even a kid would want just that. It's small and dry . You might even think it's "pangat" (pangatlong prito, or something like that). So I asked again if they can replace it with the wing part. Yes, but in 15 minutes. Let's just say that I was on "crave mode" so I patiently agreed. 15 minutes, it is. After 5 minutes or so, while savoring

John and Yoko, Greenbelt 5

On my last birthday, my boyfriend picked me up at the office after work to eat. We then proceeded to Greenbelt, as I was always wanting to try John and Yoko. The waitresses were accommodating enough to give us a seat, but due to the fact that we came at lunch time, we were given a place that's next to the kitchen, where almost (if not) all the servers pass by. We were given menus and ordered for what we thought we can finish. We were busy taking pics when the California maki salad and iced tea (calamansi flavor) were served. The salad was filled with lettuce, crabmeat, few sweet mango bits, and dressing. I'd say it's good, but really nothing to rave so much about. Next thing that came was tofu miso soup. It's very similar to that of Sumo Sam, and I must tell you that it is by far the best tofu soup that I liked. Their all-meat rice (which, the waitress said was one and a half) was more than enough for two hungry people, leaving our Japanese rice untouched. I lo
