Profile

The smiling, red-and-yellow-striped, winged mascot of Jollibee, a wildly popular, decades-old Filipino fast-food chain, has a home in Woodside’s Little Manila. Jollibee hawks Western-style eats flavored with Filipino methods, such as the Yumburger (a thin beef patty with salty local spices on a white bun); Chickenjoy (fried chicken with white rice); palabok; vermicelli noodles with shrimp and dried fish flakes; and spaghetti with a hot-dog-studded, sweet red sauce.
