Proud to be Pinoy: Jollibee Named one of the World's Best Fast Food Chains

Travel and Leisure's list of the best fast food chains named Jollibee as part of the prestigious list. Other companies included were maritime-themed chain Nordsee in Germany, noodle chain Mr. Lee in China, and street snack chain Old Chang Kee in Singapore. The list released last May 2012, Jollibee's Chicken Joy catching the international limelight

According to Travel and Leisure, "fast-food chains aren't exactly hidden gems...but they have their own quirky appeal and dish out a quick fix of local culture and cuisine."

From just 2 branches about 35 years ago, Jollibee Foods Corporation is now one of the most iconic brands in the nations with the largest restaurant network in the country, with 2,004 stores in the Philippines and 509 stores abroad -- US, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Brunei, Hong Kong and Vietnam.

Jollibee on Glee

Have you seen the most recent episode of Glee? Not exactly one of the best episodes they've done in terms of songs and performances, but definitely falling in pretty good as part of their story line.

Jollibee made a cameo too so that's great for local Filipino spirit. Whether it was casual advertising where the chain must have paid millions to get on there, or just plain coincidence (highly unlikely) but either way that's amazing exposure

The store signage of Jollibee was shown during the production number of Artie in the episode Dream On to the tune of Safety Dance
