No, Jollibee Is Not Opening in Oregon This Week. It Will Soon, Though. | Eater Portland
"A representative for the company tells Eater Portland that, counter to recent Instagram chatter, Oregon’s first location is not opening on Sunday, May 18; an issue on Google search results caused the upcoming Hillsboro Tanasbourne Village shopping-center site to appear as though it’s about to open, and there is no official opening date at this time. The rep notes the former Chevy’s location will "live again as Anthony Bourdain’s favorite fast food spot any day now," and that the official opening date for the 1951 NW 185th Avenue outpost will be released "oh-so-very-soon" to the public; this follows an initial announcement that "crash landed in 2022." Diners are eagerly awaiting the debut — many consider the Philippines-founded behemoth to serve the best fast-food fried chicken — and beyond fried chicken the chain is known for spaghetti with hot dogs, halo-halo, and generous helpings of brown sauce; there are more than 900 locations in the Philippines, almost 100 in North America, and a Seattle outpost opened in June 2024. The opening fanfare can be intense, so buckle up." - Paolo Bicchieri
