PINOY-STYLE SPAGHETTI

Filipino-Style Spaghetti is different from any other spaghetti. This version of spaghetti has sweet flavor. Spaghetti is every kids favorite food specially here in the Philippines because of its sweet flavor. And I am one of those kids. Up until now, Spaghetti has been my all-time favorite.
Ever since I was a kid, my Mom would always cook spaghetti when it's someone's birthday. And I love how she cooked it. She always makes sure that the people who will eat the foods that she cooks will love it, so she always makes sure that ingredients are complete and not left anything out.
But even if my Mom doesn't cook spaghetti, there is one way to satisfy my cravings:
THE JOLLIBEE SPAGHETTI
Oh I love Jollibee Spaghetti! I have been craving for it for the past week. And thanks to my lovely partner @trishy, she granted my wish, so we went to Jollibee to eat spaghetti. (no pictures tho. Too hungry to takes pictures. Lol.)
If you're not a Filipino or who's not familiar with Jollibee, Jollibee is a fast food reataurant from the Philippines. It's like McDonalds. Jollibee has more than a thousand outlets / branches from all over the world. Yes, you read it right, all over the world. So if you're not a Filipino and you are near a Jollibee outlet, try and order their Spaghetti, who knows, you might like it too. 😉
