Alexandria, VA – According to Michael Neubeyer at the Washington Business Journal, Jollibee from the Philippines is taking over the space left vacant by Boston Market in the Plaza at Landmark, 6200 Little River Turnpike. The restaurant’s menu features their signature Chickenjoy fried chicken, the “Yumburger,” sweet “Jolly Spaghetti,” and other Filipino noodle, beef and pork dishes.

According to their website, “Jollibee is best known for Chickenjoy, which is delicately hand-breaded to be crispylicious on the outside, with a secret marinade making it juicylicious on the inside. Every day, our customers revel in the joy of our fan favorites which include our sweet-style Jolly Spaghetti and scrumptious Peach Mango Pie made with real Philippine mangoes.”

Anthony Bourdain visited a Jollibee for “Parts Unknown.” He called the spaghetti “deranged” yet “strangely alluring,” described one dessert as making “no goddamn sense at all,” but “I love it,” and the restaurant itself as the “wackiest, jolliest place on earth.”
