MCDONALDS PHILIPPINES is DIFFERENT 🇵🇭 Trying Special Menu Items

[@mochapoundcake]

The menu wasn’t always like that. When McDo first opened in the early 80s, the menu was similar to that in the States. However, as Jollibee took over as the No. 1 fast food restaurant, they had to tweak their menu to appeal to the Jollibee crowd.

[@angelg2638]

I remember the first McDonald's in 80,81. It was authentic US MickyDees. Even the paper cups n napkins were US made.

[@John-vh3ig]

It's also because you have different taste perception. Most of the foreign foods if eaten 1st time is not as good as you would like. It takes time to adjust

[@EdwardSaturn]

Hi zane whats up, im glad your still here. I hope you get the most out of your travel here..

[@tonlomugdang]

Im not sure with the cheesy burger but it has different taste from cheeseburger. The meat's color is lighter. It's like it has pork meat in it or something. Just check all their premium burgers, from quarter pounder, Big Mac and cheeseburger, it has the same meat which is darker and more flavorful than the meat used in cheesy burger.

[@elykyle]

the best stuff on mcdo are always time limited (teryaki burger, ebi shrimp burger, mcspicy chicken sandwich, spicy mcnugs, the korean burgers, etc). same deal with kfc but its weirder like the chizza (pizza but the dough is chicken), chaco (tacos but the shell is chicken), the og cake (not cake, the "cake" is mashed potatoes), double down dog (hotdog in a bun but the bread is chicken), etc.

[@travelback5700]

McDonald's chicken tastes like those sold from Ministop (now called Uncle something) stores. 😅😅😅

[@kristinhannah001]

Im pretty sure that the ala king sauce doesnt contain coconut. Its like a creamy sauce with corn/carrots For me, everything is better in Jollibee except the fries. Mcdo fries are better. Recommending Mang Inasal, Zane-- to get a good roasted chicken .

[@ermarios4281]

One main ingredient is cream of mushroom and add soy sauce etc.

[@kristovblue]

I don't know how long you'll be in Makati, but you might be interested to check out Little Tokyo. Great Japanese food and a bit of secluded area within the busy streets of Makati. Feels like a little Japanese Village.

Great work Zane. Some of your videos are so simple. I think thats appealing. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@kyliedoscope4764]

Burger McDo is made of pork. It the same patty used on the mushroom pepper steak meal you just devoured. Other burgers such as big mac and quarter pounder are made of beef.

[@zanetravel]

Ahh! That makes sense - thank you!

[@Laevant]

I kinda had a feeling it was but does McDonald's advertise it as such? They really should for the ones that cannot consume pork.

[@kyliedoscope4764]

@@Laevant they did when it was first introduced. I forgot when but I was working in McDonald's then (2000's).

I actually like McDonald’s spaghetti. As well as jollibee’s spaghetti. I love the sweet Filipino spaghetti sauce Filipinos use along with the little hotdogs that they include

If you want great chicken, find chooks to go. Chooks to go is everywhere and probably the best chicken out there IMO.

[@rosebrown2267]

Andoks too,

[@jetd9716]

To be honest, I actually like the menu in McDonald's here than ones back in the states. In the US, their food quality is not very consistent, sometimes you get soggy buns sometimes not, goes with fries too. Here, I actually like their food when they give it to y ou, its hot and just the right texture and ingredients. Their apple pies are way better too, more applies inside them and its the old recipe, with the crispy outsides. The chicken though takes the crown here, I actually like their chicken more that Jollibee. Peace!

[@bashersbeware]

McDonald's fries is not the same anymore. They're shorter, slimmer and their texture is not the same one we've loved thru the years.

[@hu6860]

Jolly spaghetti is the national pasta in the 🇵🇭. Philippines is not complete without Jolibee🇵🇭😍☝

The spaghetti that you can find in fast food chains in PH are geared toward children. I realized this in my adulthood that sweet spaghetti is not for adults. Lol. Funny how he ate the separate rice.

[@ggnetprint1696]

whats funny? i eat whole rice to taste it too

[@angelg2638]

That spaghetti pasta did not look right. Under cooked.

Spageti is Filipino invention. The proof is that only mcdo in the philippines have spageti

[@mia-kaikai]

​@@reymeradrianotv4001No, spaghetti is from italy since spaghetti is considered pasta. Also Filipino spaghetti tastes absolutely disgusting its a disgrace to spaghetti...

[@myrnaalejandro7448]

Hello Zane

[@agentzero85]

Looked up a video to confirm after trying McDonalds in Manila that the burgers are not beef? At least not *ground* beef. They are more akin to a sausage patty. I looked on McDonald’s Philippines website, and it claims “Everyday, burger patties are prepared and packaged at McDonald’s approved meat plant”. Interesting to say the least. Not to knock down the taste perception here - don’t take this as a complaint just a point of interest. There are a few items like this which would seem to be 1:1 with American counterparts, but are made differently. Korea was much more similar when ordering items available in both countries.

[@emmcen]

❤❤😊

[@Demigod2NE3]

Yeah Filipino Spaghetti is not for everyone or Americans. Filipino style spaghetti is sweet and not the typical Italian ones. I quite like the Mcdo Spaghetti though but nothing beats Jollibee Spaghetti

[@amaliahightower]

I’m surprised the Fish n chips with tartar sauce is not on the menu? It’s gone n it’s my fav! I missed Ivar’s Fish n chips in Seattle!

[@darrellcredo1991]

I can’t come to eating spaghetti at a fast food place like McDonald’s. I would never order it there or Jubilee. The chicken possibility, but again I’m just use to burgers, chicken sandwiches and fries at Mickey D’s.

simply because we are a third world country as to why you're taste buds are for cheap foods only

[@jcs838]

Just to be fair the spaghetti is not as bad. Chicken ala King is a popular dish ( checked out other KZbin recipes ) this is a cream sauce recipe not based on coconut sauce. To be fair as well, one cannot judge the food and say it is the worst Mcdonald in the world ( if you have travelled 100% in the world or if one understands food well that is a different story ) but you can always say "as far I have eaten from other countries that I have been to." As a tourist, always be careful on what one is saying, as a viewer one should always be discerning and not always believe. One can be brutally honest but always be fair and give a little respect to the food stall/chain/establishment in another country. Btw, it is pronounce as McDo ( as in Do in Do-Re-Mi ) and not McDu
