Jolly Bubble Food and Beverage Tea Kills Two Birds with One Stone


Back then, I could remember Chatime when it hit Cebu IT Park (and I may prepare to write about it soon). Now, I feel like talking about how Jolly Bubble Milk Tea might be another unique experience. I remembered how Chatime had its snack meals such as the delicious chicken chop sandwich or the hamburger. Though I wanted to have those--they're currently not available in contrast to their main product line which is tea. Now, I would like to talk about another Taiwanese-style milk tea which is also one of my favorites. It would be Jolly Bubble Food and Beverage Tea. This is a restaurant that I'd dare say kills two birds with one stone. It's because it provides both a delicious meal and some milk tea at the same time.

I could remember how I would go to IT Park to eat out. It would be like I go to eat at Army Navy in one moment then cross over Chatime to the next. Maybe, I could talk about how I go to eat at Bharat Spice at one moment then go to Chatime for a drink. Chatime's food items are mostly good for a snack but not for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. True, Chatime has provided me a lot of delicious drinks that I can't find at Jolly Bubble. However, Jolly Bubble manages to provide me a site where I can get a delicious meal and a glass of delicious beverage at once. Though, I tend to eat first at Little India Healthy Cuisine or Fung's Noodle House first before I get a glass of Jolly Bubble's delicious tea. Jolly Bubble, however, also provides some delicious food as an alternative to the other restaurants in SSY Lahug.

Jolly Bubble has a good range of foods for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Though, they do have a mixed diversification of foods such as the Monte Cristo Sandwich, sisig (pork head dish) with Taiwanese spices, teriyaki chicken, some delicious Chinese rice meals, and their famous Chicken G-Pai which I call Taiwanese chickenkatsu. Speaking of which, it seems that matcha has made its way to Taiwanese tea even if it's a Japanese invention. Then again, nothing is completely original these days. It's all about their innovative twist in their beverages and food. Much of the food they serve clicks well with the Filipino customer. 

I heard that they too have a branch in Mandaue City. I think the expansion in Mandaue might be key to its success too. I guess people from Mandaue City went to Cebu City to taste their delicious food. I believe having a branch in Mandaue City might be a key to its expansion in Cebu Island. Hopefully, it might be available to expand nationwide via franchise since their food and services are just so good!

Filipino First Policy Also Responsible That ONLY 2/10 Pinoys Have Emergency Funds

Yes, it's been a day since Typhoon Tino. It was a stormy, scary time, and I thought about how expenses were piling up after I was hit by Typhoon Odette . Thankfully, I had contingency savings at that time. However, with Uswan moving upwards and entering another area of the Philippine Area of Responsibility, I considered the issue of emergency savings. I thought about how Christmas can be the most stressful time of the year, with issues such as traffic caused by last-minute Christmas shopping . This time, I thought about some not-so-surprising statistics on Filipinos. It turns out that   only 2/10  Filipinos have enough emergency savings .  This should be considered disturbing,  and this is another thing I failed to consider in my younger, more foolish years, according to the Philippine Star : Commissioned by insurance firm EastWest Ageas, the PURPLE Report conducted by consumer intelligence company NielsenIQ showed that most Filipinos only have P50,000 in emerg...

Confusing Foreign Direct Investment for Foreign Imperialism for the Bajillionth Time

I guess those fools of the Philippine Anti-Fascist League (and many of its deluded supporters) either refuse to get it or are blatantly lying. Almost every rally held by what many believe are CPP-NPA legal fronts also confuses foreign investors for foreign invasion or even foreign imperialism . Once again, do I need to say that 100% FDI ownership is all about the shares and not land ownership ? What makes it even more hypocritical is that they are actually recording these things on imported media . They're sharing their anti-FDI rants using imported devices, imported platforms, and imported social media (read here ). When I do ask them on Facebook, they say how can they take them seriously and that they're "simply forced to participate in capitalism". Did anybody (especially those they call "evil capitalists") force them to buy the expensive Apple equipment when they could've settled for Xiaomi or Huawei?  A simple research on the dictionary will tell us...

Should Noynoy Aquino be a Valid Excuse to Reject Econ Cha Cha?

Philippine Star   Updated January 25, 2025 This may be a touchy post. Politics is often a source of fights during parties. That's why we're told not to talk about politics during parties. Unfortunately, some people on Facebook are now using the late Benigno Simeon "Noynoy" C. Aquino Jr. as an excuse not to execute even economic charter change. Never mind that blatant supporter of Atty. Maria Leonor "Leni" Gerona-Robredo, Andrew James Masigan, supports economic charter change . The late Charles Edward P. Celdran was also an anti-Duterte critic. As I looked at some okay boomer posts, I'm not surprised at people who still use Noynoy as an excuse to shout with all their might, "No to economic charter change!" Somebody posted on Facebook the following. As always, I won't publicly shame anyone. If possible, I will only refer to them by codenames or use the name Anonymous. I want to remain as professional as possible. This person said that under N...

Protectionists' Scare Tactics Against Free Trade for the Philippines

Happy Halloween, I guess? I decided to write this article just today to tackle  scare tactics against economic liberalization. A scare tactic is defined as a strategy intended to manipulate public opinion about a particular issue by arousing fear or alarm. Economic liberalization is defined by  Investopedia as: Trade liberalization is the removal or reduction of restrictions or barriers on the free exchange of goods between nations. These barriers include tariffs, such as duties and surcharges, and nontariff barriers, such as licensing rules and quotas. Economists often view the easing or eradication of these restrictions as steps to promote free trade. This is also where we have  free trade . I've read protectionist scare tactics during the times of former Philippine presidents, the late Benigno Simeon C. Aquino, and Rodrigo R. Duterte. I found a lot on Facebook and Twitter . It's not uncommon really that stupid people abound on social media and write the stupidest thin...

Schools Need to Learn to Stop Giving Too Much Homework

I think one of the things I want to write about education right now is the problem of too much homework . It almost didn't matter which school you went to in the Philippines or in some area--there's hardly a policy that discourages the regulation of homework. I'm not saying that homework should be abolished altogether compared to class ranking. I still think that regulated homework is the key.  The benefits of homework are told by the Global Indian International School from Singapore: What is the Purpose of Homework?   Homework is an essential part of every student's education. The purpose of homework for students is to practice what they have learned in class . It also gives students an opportunity to practice time management skills . Homework can also help build character by teaching children how to cope with frustration and how to manage their stress levels when they encounter difficulties or setbacks . Homework is a part of the school day, but it's also a huge p...

Learning About Reversible Chinese Words

I wanted to write more about Chinese education. I did write about the constraints that hit Chinese education . I had problems with how too much memorization became the focus. With Chinese, there's also the world of reversible words which change in meaning . In English, we can compare that to the anagram where switching letters change the meaning . For example, evil and vile may be synonymous but live and evil aren't. In Chinese, we can have two characters getting swapped which may either change the meaning entirely or change to a related meaning. Remember that they may be related but they don't have the same meaning. I could remember how the Hokkien calls visitors lang ke and while we called the customer ke lang. Both are people but both have a different purpose. I got into the LTL Mandarin School website and found reversible Chinese words. I won't tackle it all here because 164 words would mean I'll have to write an entire lecture. I think one of the biggest probl...

Why the DSWD Still Needs PRIVATE Sectors in Disaster Relief Operations

DSWD Field Office 7 - Central Visayas It's disheartening to know that after the Bogo earthquake in Cebu last September 30, 2025. Today, an earthquake Davao Oriental this day on October 10, 2025. It's sad to think that today is October 10, which is the Double 10 celebration for Taiwan . Right now, it's effortless for fools on Facebook (which is ironic) giving anti-capitalist, anti-business rants, never mind that even Vietnam is no longer solely dependent on State-Owned Enterprises! Instead, it made me think of the COVID-19 incident all over again, such as how Foodpanda and Grab, both foreign delivery services , have been helpful to Filipino businesses . Some idiots said on Facebook (and as always, I will not mention their names, they're public figures ) that it is the workers who did the work, not the owners, and that the government should provide everything. One crazy comment I got from someone on Facebook was, "Why should there be private enterprises? The DSWD is ...

Profood International Corporation's Calamansi Ginger Grean Tea Concentrate

I'm someone who always buys local and imported food products. However, I tend to buy local where I go because eating local is usually more beneficial. I was buying some stuff last Sunday. I found this product which I haven't heard of yet. It's called Calamansi Ginger Green Tea. If South Koreans have their Honey Citron, then maybe we can say Filipinos have Calamansi Ginger Green Tea concentrate, which also contains honey.  I gave it a shot, and it gives some relief for the throat. I drank Ginga Ginger Brew after I caught Omicron. That was the time when COVID-19 would eventually "get us all". I was looking for Ginga ginger powder but I wasn't able to find it. Fortunately, this food product ws available and it's helping me. I tend to get throat problems whenever the weather changes too much! I would drink it either lukewarm or cold, due to the weather conditions. The combination of ginger and calamansi helped me feel better. I would like to recommend this foo...

GrabFood vs. FoodPanda--How Foreign Delivery Services Help Grow Filipino Businesses

Moneymax I could remember the pandemic when ordering from GrabFood and Foodpanda became the thing. The COVID-19 pandemic would've totally stifled the restaurant and food businesses, especially before the vaccinations. Right now, I've had my three Pfizer shots in total. As restaurants began to re-open, dine-in was still strictly not allowed until a certain percentage of Cebu City was vaccinated. I began to order some food whenever I need to (or want to) even with such limited choices. This had me thinking about how imported services can help local businesses.  Whether those "nationalists" want to admit it or not--neither GrabFood nor Foodpanda are founded by Filipinos. Instead, GrabFood is founded in Singapore and Foodpanda is founded in Berlin, Germany. If it wasn't for the fall of the Berlin Wall--there would be no Foopanda. Back then, I remembered dining in my favorite local restaurants. However, the delivery service came and there were times I felt too lazy to ...

Trying to Get Rich Quick, Aren't We?

There's a saying that there's no elevator to success--take the stairs! It's a problem when people overspend--they ignore basic economics. I confess that I was an overspending teenager, I did flunk my first grading in economics back in high school (though I got better in college with economics during my stay at the University of San Carlos-Main Campus), and I only have a total of 12 economic units in my academic life. My thrifty parents had the habit of not giving me more allowance which caused me to re-evaluate my spending habits. It made me eat canteen food and re-evaluate my actions. Though, I also nearly fell for some get-rich-quick schemes too. Then I almost participated in one but withdrew earlier than expected. This brings me back memories of cartoons that I watched as a kid. Maybe, one can remember some Hanna Barbera sitcoms such as Top Cat  and  The Flintstones to name a few. Top Cat was always up to some idiotic schemes which usually backfire at the end of the epi...
