Jollibee vs Mcdo: All the #Hugot Ads for a 'Bida Ang Sawi' Valentine's

Jollibee's recent string of 'Kwentong Jollibee' commercials are recently going viral in social media, and it's not surprising why. The valentines-themed ads taps into Filipino values of love and sacrifice, but at the same time these true-to-life, heart-wrenching stories triggered all the feels from Filipinos around the country by making them remember similar instances where moments like these happened our own lives. 

Before you head over to the nearest Jollibee store to grab a Jollibee Yum or Chickenjoy, let's relive these hugot ads from rival Mcdonald's as well.

Firefly View Deck: An Amazing View and a Mongolian Feast


The Firefly View Deck, located at the rooftop of City Garden Grand Hotel, is popular for its view of the beautiful Makati skyline 32 floors high. It's a place where you can enjoy a few drinks and unwind after a busy day at the office. It's quite a popular place for expats, being so close to Makati Avenue's night scene.

The restaurant offers rooftop barbecue, an all-you-can-eat Mongolian Buffet, bar chow and drinks for fun evening of music and laughs. I wouldn't label the restaurant a foodie haven that serves amazing, must-eat dishes - you come here to have a good time on top of the city. With the exception of the buffet, prices are reasonable and you are sure to have a fun time with live music and a lively night crowd.

Here's what you can expect from Firefly View Deck at City Garden Grand Hotel...

Miguel & Maria: Upscale Western Comfort Food at the Heart of Marikina


Miguel & Maria is a popular foodie spot located along Marikina's Lilac street. The restaurant is known to serve upscale Western comfort food at very affordable prices. The experience is similar to eating at a very upscale restaurant in either Makati or Bonifacio Global City, with food of the same caliber but at half the prices. That's right, you could enjoy quality, beautifully cooked, delicious dishes for less. 

The picturesque dishes definitely helps with the restaurant's appeal, with almost all the dishes (save for the ribs) oozing with cheese. Miguel and Maria serves upscale comfort food that's worth every peso - a phrase that don't go together too often.

Here's what you can expect from Miguel & Maria...
