Jollibee Opens Flagship Store in Al Falah, Abu Dhabi

Jollibee, the popular Filipino fast-food chain opens its flagship store in the heart of UAE capital last February 8, 2017. It is their second branch here in Abu Dhabi but as expected, Pinoys are always excited to welcome our favorite fast-food restaurant.

An exclusive media and VIP preview was held a day prior the store’s public opening. Ribbon cutting and speeches by Mr. Hisham Al Gurg, Chief investor in the Jollibee franchise in the UAE, Mr. Dennis Flores, Vice President for International Markets of the International Operations Division of Jollibee Foods Corporation, and Philippine Embassy Abu Dhabi Vice Consul Rowena Pangilinan Daquipil,  formally marks the soft opening of our well-loved restaurant.

Jollibee's expansion in UAE with their two new stores here in Abu Dhabi greatly made Filipinos happy. They indeed brought us a 'taste of home' with their signature crispylicious and juicylicious Chickenjoy. There is also the Jolly Spaghetti, known for its sweet-style meaty sauce; and Jollibee's signature 'langhap sarap' Yum Burgers and Burger Steak.



Media and VIPs gathered outside Jollibee store to witness the ribbon cutting.

Restaurant Review : Jollibee @ Dubai Mall



This review was long overdue. Well, we only had a chance to visit Jollibee in Dubai mall recently, although they've been open there for  almost a year in couple of months now. We were lucky to be in queue for just 15 minutes since we arrived there a little early for lunch time. But after my turn to order, people started coming and the crew patiently assisted customers to be properly in line so other people in the food court will not be disturbed.

My husband and I were so excited that we wanted to try everything in the menu. I just told my husband that our priority was to taste the chicken, spaghetti, hotdog sandwich and the burger. So, I guess we've ordered almost everything. Here are our orders!






The aroma was quite 'The Pinas Jollibee'. Hmmmm, I'm already mouth watering while doing this post. Ok, I started with the spaghetti, it was 95% similar to the original. Then I took a bite of the chicken, I would say it was 90% similar to the original. The rice and burger steak was my husband's but I had a taste of it, I guess it's 98% similar as the original. I ate the jolly hotdog later in the afternoon of the same day and I would say it was 80% similar to the original. Overall, the taste was definitely satisfying. There were slight differences in the taste but I'm sure all our kababayans here in UAE were satisfied and happy.

The success of Jollibee here was really obvious that in less than a year they will be opening more branches in Dubai. Hopefully soon in Abu Dhabi also.

Reserveout - Simplifying Restaurant Reservations

What is Reserveout?
Know how Reserveout simplifies reservations for users and restaurants

In the fast paced lifestyle we live in nowadays, people are leaning towards things that make their live easier, things that will take no time and can be done on the go, this explains inflation of mobile usage, shopping, selling, work, and almost every other thing can now be done online. All you need is internet and a device to connect you to it. 

Because of that a lot of new businesses took advantage of the convenience of the internet, hence, we now can see online shopping, reservations, services, and MANY other things. However, we will be discussing the online restaurant reservation platform “Reserveout” that allows users to book at their favorite restaurants in Dubai, Amman, Beirut, and many other countries in the Middle East.

Working as a platform that bridges the gap between hospitality, entertainment and dining service providers and their patrons, Reserveout uses their rich and sophisticated online experience through their web and mobile applications to enable online and mobile users to easily search and immediately reserve with venues part of the Reserveout network. 

Reserveout offers their clients (venue owners such as restaurants, spas, etc.) an electronic portal with which to efficiently manage, track, and sell resources and services available within their businesses in order to provide the best possible experience to their clientele. This software is a powerful and constantly emergent database that will serve as an electronic reservation book and a robust table management system.





Reservations as easy as 1, 2, 3

The website and application are easy to use, instantly confirmed, and user friendly. Users can use Reserveout to find their favorite restaurant and reserve at, allowing them to instantly book a table at any restaurant in their extensive listing, and with speedy search features built right in; you can easily discover a new spot across the street or around the city. Additionally, Reserveout will provide users with updates about the latest and hottest promotions and newsletters, and will furthermore inspire you if you still don’t know where to spend your next weekend.

Keep track and manage your business more efficiently 

Reserveout is allowing restaurants to gain comprehensive understanding of each individual diner, and help increase revenue through clear data about customer segments, restaurants can make sure their revenues are maximized on peak nights and extend peak hours. Additionally, Reserveout is working when the restaurants are not, reservation platforms are linked to each restaurant's reservation system around the clock, and so customers can reserve tables through their app and website at any point during the day.

This is only the tip of the iceberg, few of many features. Reserveout surely offers more tools for both users and restaurants. Its platform and services are currently available in Abu Dhabi, Amman, Beirut, Doha, Jeddah, Manama and Dubai; however expansion into the rest of the Middle East and Turkey is planned in the very near future.

Restaurant Review : Rosewater Restaurant in Jumeirah at Etihad Towers

My husband and I together with our friends had a chance to dine in for breakfast in Rosewater Restaurant in Jumeirah at Etihad Towers. This is one of luxury hotels here in Abu Dhabi and the dining experience was exceptional.

Our friends bought discounted vouchers online and we got almost half the price per person for a buffet breakfast. Half-price with full dining experience!

There were wide range of buffet cuisine options and live cooking station. They had a good selection of fresh fruits and desserts. Food were definitely extraordinaire, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and the architectural ambiance sets an exquisite taste of elegance.
