  • Jollibee brings back the all-out, ‘Sarap ng Pasko’ experience this holiday season

    Christmas in 2022 is shaping up to be much brighter and exciting after two years of less festive and missed gatherings. The country’s number one fast food chain, Jollibee, hopes to encapsulate the all-out kind of Christmas celebration that Pinoys love whenever they visit Jollibee stores and order their langhap-sarap favorites with the launch of their Sarap ng Pasko campaign.

    Jollibee Sarap ng Pasko

    As Jollibee endeavors to bring back the joyful moments people look forward to during the most wonderful time of the year, the brand released its “Sa Jollibee, Sarap ng Pasko” jingle and video to kick-off the holiday season. The exciting and upbeat video shows several vignettes of joyful Christmas celebrations – this includes a family going to a brightly lit Jollibee Drive-Thru, a group of friends having their Christmas get-together in a Jollibee store, mascots and store teams happily dancing, and a big family coming together to celebrate the holidays at their beautifully decorated home. Every gathering is made even better with best-tasting Jollibee favorites like Chickenjoy, Jolly Spaghetti, and Burger Steak.

    “We share in our customers’ excitement and joy to once again have the all-out celebrations that Christmas in the Philippines is known for. We’re very happy to have launched this holistic Christmas campaign to really make this season extra special for every Filipino family,” says Dorothy Dee-Ching, VP Marketing of Jollibee Philippines.

    With several exciting offers this holiday season as part of the Sarap ng Pasko campaign, Jollibee aims to continue bringing unmatched joy for customers of all ages.

    More Delicious Food to add to your Salu-Salo

    Aside from the staple Jollibee favorites that Filipino families love to eat and share—Chickenjoy, Jolly Spaghetti, and Burger Steak—new limited time offer products have been launched to make holiday gatherings more delicious and enjoyable. These include the tasty-beefy sarap Garlic Pepper Beef (P95), the fun, flavorful, and crispy Crisscut Fries (P75), and the creamy, and chunky Choco Crumble Sundae made with KITKAT® (P55). This December, Jollibee will also be bringing back the Choco Mallow Pie—a delightful Sweet Pie that customers can look forward to for a sweeter and more indulgent season!

    *Prices of products vary

    A Christmas Drive-Thru Experience like no other

    All roads lead to Jollibee BGC Triangle Drive as the store’s bright lights and colorful designs entice people of all ages to drive-thru at Jollibee to bring home their favorite meals to their loved ones. The Christmas-themed installation has multiple-colored bright lights adorning the entire stretch of the drive-thru lane, starting with a grand welcome arch, and complemented by parols and stained glass-like panels that show moments of true Filipino Christmas celebrations, Jollibee and his friends, and much-loved Jollibee favorites. The Drive-Thru installation, which was launched last November 15, has become a favorite Christmas attraction in the Metro, with customers posting pictures and videos of their one-of-a-kind experience in social media.

    Drive Thru

    Buy One, Gift One Jollibee App Delivery Promo

    The Christmas spirit is better when it is passed on from one person to the next, and Jollibee has made it easier for customers to share the joy of the season. From November 16 to December 15, customers who order any of the participating Family Pans via the Jollibee App will be able to donate pans of the same variant to underprivileged families with the help of Jollibee Group Foundation and its partners. Farmer communities, homes for seniors and the differently abled are just some of the groups that will benefit and have an extra joyful holiday salu-salo this season. With Jollibee’s Buy One, Gift One delivery promo, customers can give back and share their blessings with just a few taps on the Jollibee App.

    BOGO

    “We wanted to offer our customers a complete, all-out Christmas experience. And what better way to celebrate this season than sharing the joy? From our best-tasting food, our exciting Christmas-themed stores, to our advocacy initiative, we want to give our customers the most wonderful holiday celebration – it’s about time na bumawi tayo sa sarap at saya ng Pasko – and Jollibee will always be part of making every gathering more memorable and joyful for everyone,” added Dorothy Dee-Ching.

  • Tivoli Royale Country Club’s Worry-Free Christmas Gift Ideas

    Two years of largely canceled events and gatherings with loved ones means more families are gearing up to host holiday guests for the first time in a while. Once again, the rush and busyness are back, but Tivoli Royale Country Club’s gift ideas will take out the hassle and worries of gift-giving. 

    Tivoli Royale Country Club FIlipino Comfort Food

    Baked treats to Gourmet Hampers

    Executive Chef Jonnel Roxas puts on the spotlight Holiday favorites with sweet treats as the beginning. The ideal gift for the little ones and sweet-toothed adults, order the 6 pcs of assorted gourmet cookies in green tea matcha, dark chocolate truffle, and cashew peanut butter for only P250. The homemade almond banana bread (P250) is also a great addition, especially for its perfect balance of sweetness, moisture, and density. Add as well a taste of Italy with Panettone Bread (Php300), notable for its dome shape, and buttery texture, soaked in brandy and then studded with candied citrus peels. For someone who loves to try a bit of everything and something for families,  the Premium Hamper (Php2,000) is filled with bread and cookies, bottled gourmet treats from classic pesto, homemade bagoong, chili garlic sauce, herb garlic cream cheese, and anchovies in olive oil. 

    Party-Ready Platters and Set Meals 

    Share comfort and joy this Holiday Season with Chef Jonnel’s party-ready set meals and carefully selected home-cooked dishes. Good for 5 to 6 persons with four options for only P4,500, selections are nothing short of familiar, straightforward and even kids will love them.  The must-try for the takeaway bundle is the Gourmet Feels, with pot roast beef with wild mushrooms as the star of this festive package. Inclusive as well are the zesty lemon chicken, classic carbonara, leek potato gratin, steamed rice, and the classic creme brulee. Hearty and filling, this is ideal for meat lovers with intimate get-togethers at home. 

    Tivoli Royale Country Club Buchon Pork Belly w Fried Banana

    Homecooked goodness has always been Tivoli Royale’s best-sellers and a great option for parties and family gatherings, everyone guaranteed on your holiday table will love it. Make “Buchon” Pork belly  (P1,400/kg) as your centerpiece with all the flavor and crunch that your guests crave. If something is slow-cooked and reminiscent of grandma’s cooking, Callos alla Madrileña (Php800) is a soul-warming dish with Spanish origins. Chicken lovers will surely rave about the highly-rated Chicken Inasal with Java Rice (Php600), which is a major upgrade from fast food versions in terms of taste, texture, and portion size. For pescetarians, the Blue Fin Tuna and Kani Baked Sushi (Php950)doesn’t scrimp on ingredients as it’s generously spread with garlic cream cheese in between instead of the usual mayonnaise. 

    The Gift of Experiences

Another newly-launched activity is pickleball, the fastest-growing sport with clinically proven benefits for the brain. A happy medium between ping pong and badminton, the movement involves great hand-eye coordination and reflexes, is highly aerobic, and gets both the upper and lower body moving. Class is on offer both for members (Php10,000) and non-members (Php11,00) and open for beginners, intermediate, and advanced levels. 

    However, another option is a day pass for only Php800, with access to the club’s swimming pool, gym, locker, sauna, and steam room. It also comes with Php300 food and beverage credits to fuel up after the fun and active day. 

    For a full experience of the club’s amenities and facilities, consider a one-year membership for only Php25,000with minimal Php3,000 monthly dues and Php500 worth of credits valid for both food and beverage or sports and recreation activities. Inclusive of access for a family of four to its gym and fitness center, pool, and game center, the club also features four levels of sports and recreation with events facilities.  With all these benefits and more, a weekend or daily getaway is closer than you think.
