The Hottest New Restaurants in the Seattle Area, June 2024
"Filipino fried chicken fans have reason to celebrate, as Seattle finally has its very own Jollibee. The multinational chain opened its newest location in early June 2024 in Rainier Valley, next to the Safeway on Rainier Avenue South. It means less of a trek for Jollibee devotees, as this is the first shop inside the city limits — the other Seattle-area location is actually in Tukwila, at Southcenter Mall, and there’s another one in Tacoma too. If you’ve never been, the Manila-based restaurant corp is known for its crispy fried chicken, peach–mango hand pies, and sweet Filipino spaghetti with a banana ketchup base that’s loaded with ground beef and hot dogs and topped with melty cheese." - Meg van Huygen, Harry Cheadle
