Ya, had the same feeling about Jollibee. The Pies are good though.

With Jollibee, one has to get the spicy, the plain is definitely very bland. However the draw for me is they have one of the meatier pieces of fried chicken.I had Jollibee last weekend and found it to be surprisingly bland. I figured a Filipino chain would offer at least somewhat interesting flavour. Had KFC a few days later and preferred its taste...
I did have the "spicy". There was barely any heat in addition to the bland flavour.With Jollibee, one has to get the spicy, the plain is definitely very bland. However the draw for me is they have one of the meatier pieces of fried chicken.
EDIT: Personally, with a lot of fried chicken, I skip the sauce they include and douse it in PG Clucks sauce. Popeyes is absolutely killer this way.
Perhaps downtown captive markets will be their saviour.Go see how busy a McDs is in the downtown core food courts is during lunch hour. They've adapted quite well.
I recently went to Fairview Mall for the first time in many years. It was busy in general (with a line-up to get into the T&T) including the food court, and an unbelievably large mob around the McD's and people getting annoyed at the long wait. If some of them are doing poorly, I assume it must be ones in out of the way locations, or something to do with revenue not keeping up with costs rather than a lack of customers.Go see how busy a McDs is in the downtown core food courts is during lunch hour...
As a part of Bell's recent layoffs, they are closing 100 The Source locations. I had no idea they were owned by Bell.
