for when you're back home or on another visit.

The local mom and pop type of places really need all the support they can get right now.
Please don't go to Jollibee, Shake Shack, etc.

But what if I don't have a Jollibee where I live? -- nm - sycor Apr 1, 07:46 4
- Get it another time. Right now they don't need the customers like other locally owned business do. They're going to open a huge store here soon - Krusty Apr 1, 08:07
- Go to KFC. Or Popeyes. Or boil some spaghetti at home. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 1, 07:55 2
  - I honestly don't even know what Jollibee is so it was mostly a joke. -- nm - sycor Apr 1, 08:05 1
    - Filipino fast food chain -- nm - Krusty Apr 1, 08:14
Jollibee sucks. I mean, it's like saying "go eat at KFC." -- nm - JaxSean Apr 1, 07:13 2

is jollibee franchise or corporate-owned? -- nm - amanda jeans Apr 1, 06:51 1
- The one we have is owned by the corporation from what I can tell. -- nm - Krusty Apr 1, 06:54
But...but...Jollibee! -- nm - ty97 Apr 1, 06:49 5
- But...but...NYC businesses and people. Support local businesses. - Krusty Apr 1, 06:56 4
  - NYC people work at Jollibee! -- nm - ty97 Apr 1, 06:57 3
    - I'm not going to do this right now. You know the difference between supporting a chain and local establishment. - Krusty Apr 1, 06:59
    - (plus it's Manhattan, everything is corporate here) -- nm - ty97 Apr 1, 06:59 1
      - That's so not true. -- nm - Krusty Apr 1, 06:59
