Before going savory, Jollibee started as an ice cream parlor in the Philippines in 1975.

After we discovered that Seattle was getting its first-ever Jollibee, we asked what everyone’s favorite fast food fried chicken joint was anyways. Overwhelmingly, you all chose local — Ezell’s had 57% of the vote. And when we asked which fast food spot you wanted to see move in next, In-N-Out Burger was the most mentioned name.

From the editor
Hi, everyone! How was your weekend? I had a nice, relaxing time staying home for the most part. It was needed after all the traveling I’ve been doing lately. I’m also expecting Halloween weekend to be pretty busy because I’ve been working hard on my costume and won’t be letting it go to waste. So, if you see a super cool-looking vampire lady walking around, it’s probs me.
