Filipinos are ultimate food lovers. One does not need to be a foodie to know where to go to and what to have with or without an occasion–especially with a never-ending list of go-to places that promise to satisfy one’s cravings.

Jollibee and Mang Inasal are some of the most reliable suppliers of satisfied cravings among Filipinos, what with its bevy of offerings that are truly Pinoy, and that do not make wallets weep. Here are some of the latest food fares you can enjoy in your next trip to the cashier of these fast food chains!

For Filipinos, breakfast is the most essential meal of the day. Busy or not, it is vital to grab a bite to kickstart the day. With this, Jollibee brings its newest Breakfast Joys with breakfast favorites sandwiched in delectably soft buns that you can enjoy even on-the-go! With the right combination of ingredients to give you the fuel required for a long and busy day, the Jollibee Breakfast Sandwiches also bring delicious flavors and textures that will make you look forward to the next morning you’ll have it!

Here, you can savor on two options to take-out or drive-thru to power up for your day, the Egg & Cheese Sandwich at (P39.00) and the Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Sandwich at (P50.00).

Egg & Cheese Sandwich

The Egg & Cheese Sandwich offers the timeless combination of sunny-side up egg and cheese in a buttered bun. Add in a drizzle of maple syrup to complete the symphony of breakfast flavors—and you’ve got a winning sandwich!

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich

If you want a little extra, the Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Sandwich hits all the right spots for bacon lovers. Crispy, smoky-savory slices of bacon join a sunny-side up egg and cheese sandwiched between warm buttered buns and drizzle of maple syrup for a flavor-packed bite.

Mang Inasal Creamy Halo-Halo

On March 17, Mang Inasal will celebrate the National Halo Halo Sarap Day. Now on its third year, the National Halo-Halo Sarap Day will have all Mang Inasal stores nationwide, offering the Mang Inasal Pinoy Halo-Halo at discounted prices of P35 for small serving and P55 for regular serving.

Most foodies agree that there are three factors to consider in this classic Pinoy merienda and dessert: the texture of shaved ice, which should be fine and smooth; the quality and variety of its mixed ingredients; and, last, but definitely not the least, the creaminess of the milk.

While the Mang Inasal Pinoy Halo-Halo scores high in all three qualities, a number of foodies agree that what really makes Mang Inasal Pinoy Halo-Halo stand out is its deliciously creamy milk which perfectly harmonizes all its ingredients together.

“We are happy to note that our customers crave for the creaminess of the Mang Inasal Pinoy Halo-Halo,” said Marketing Director Mike Dumaual. “This milk was exclusively developed for the MI Pinoy Halo-Halo and is not readily available off the shelf, Dumaual added.

Even actress and self-confessed foodie, Angel Locsin loves the creaminess of the Mang Inasal Pinoy Halo-Halo. As the face of this brand’s great-tasting treat, Angel attests to the creaminess of this all-time Pinoy favorite.
