Jollibee Takes Center Stage as a Global Restaurant Phenomenon with Milestone Opening in the Heart of Times Square on August 18, 2022
Jollibee, the global restaurant brand that is taking America (and the world!) by storm, will open its new flagship restaurant in the heart of New York City's Times Square on Thursday, August 18, 2022. On a mission to become one of the world's top-five restaurant chains, Jollibee is the next iconic brand taking its place at "the crossroads of the world." In response to its rapidly growing popularity in both the U.S. and Canada, Jollibee is evolving its North American menu to broaden appeal with new burgers sides and salads, which will only be available at the new Times Square location ahead of their nationwide rollout later this year.
Best known for its mouth-watering Chickenjoy bone-in fried chicken, signature Chicken Sandwich and iconic Peach Mango Pie, Jollibee is rounding-out its menu with several new offerings – starting with a brand-new burger line-up in honor of this enduring icon of American cuisine. But that's not all. Jollibee is also introducing a host of new salads and sides – giving its longtime fans something new to discover and giving those who haven't yet tried Jollibee a lot more reasons to do so.
"Opening our Times Square location, an undeniable global destination and retail hot spot, is truly a dream come true for our brand," said Maribeth Dela Cruz, President, Jollibee Group North America, Philippine Brands. "It's not only our newest location, but a powerful symbol of how far we've come and the unlimited potential we see for the future. We are committed to becoming one of the top global QSR restaurants and this opening marks a key milestone in that plan. Our fans are the best in the world, and we invite those who haven't tried Jollibee yet – from around the corner and around the world – to discover our joyful dining experience for themselves."
Primely located at 1500 Broadway (between 43rd and 44th Street) in the center of New York City's most famous landmark, Jollibee is ready to turn curious newcomers into lifelong fans with its signature brand of joy – great-tasting food at a great value, paired with its always-cheerful customer service.
Jollibee's marquee offering centers on its mouth-watering take on an American favorite –fried chicken, which can be enjoyed through a variety of menu items including:
- Chickenjoy: Aptly named for the joy it brings with just one bite, this is Jollibee's best-selling bone-in chicken offering that is beloved by millions of fans worldwide; each piece is delicately hand-breaded to be crispy on the outside, cooked with precision to be juicy on the inside, and marinated to the bone for next-level flavor. After its Chickenjoy bested 14 global brands in four rounds of contests, Jollibee was recently named "the best chain fried chicken in America" by Eater.com, an international food website by Vox Media.
- Spicy Chickenjoy: Another top-seller is this fiery version of the classic Chickenjoy, which is spicy inside and out for those who like a little heat.
- Chicken Sandwich: This sandwich features a crispy, juicy chicken breast fillet, spread with umami mayo, and served on a toasted brioche bun. Find out why this newly launched sandwich has been lauded for its "intense crunch" by The Takeout, and discover how the umami flavor profile and signature Jollibee seasonings meld together to create a perfect chicken sandwich offering.
- Spicy Chicken Sandwich: A spicy version of the original chicken sandwich features sriracha mayo and fresh jalapeños for added crunch and heat.
For many fans, Jollibee's fried chicken will always be the star of the menu, but burger brands beware – Jollibee is introducing a new line-up of all-beef burgers to the table. Making their debut exclusively at the Times Square location, these new burgers are built to satisfy those who are craving this timeless American classic; notable standouts include:
- Double Deluxe Burger – The headliner of the all-new burgers that are cooked when you order them to deliver next-level beefy and next level cheesy burgers. The Double Deluxe features two 100% beef patties and double the melted sharp American cheese. It is topped with sliced tomato, premium lettuce and Jollibee's signature burger sauce on a butter toasted bun.
- Aloha Burger – Like the Double Deluxe version, it's always cooked when you order it to maximize freshness. The one-of-a-kind Aloha Cheeseburger starts with two 100% beef patties and double the melted sharp American cheese; from there, its flavorful toppings take an exotic twist: crispy bacon, a grilled pineapple ring and a signature aloha-style dressing on a butter toasted bun.
But there's more! In celebration of its momentous Times Square arrival, Jollibee is also shining the spotlight on its new line-up of delicious salads and sides, including Baked Cheddar Mac 'n Cheese – a special blend of macaroni and cheese that is topped with shredded cheddar cheese and baked in-house to achieve the ultimate creamy, cheesy accompaniment; a Mandarin Orange Crispy Chicken Salad – featuring Jollibee's signature sliced crispy chicken tenders and premium fresh produce; and freshly baked warm and flakey Biscuits.
Lastly, whether you want to stick with your to-go Jollibee favorites or try something new, just make sure you also leave room for the brand's signature dessert: Peach Mango Pie. Made with peaches and real Philippine mangoes enveloped in a light and crispy crust, it provides a perfectly sweet ending to any Jollibee meal.
Jollibee Times Square will be open seven days a week, from 9AM – 12AM. Customers can dine at the restaurant beginning on opening day and also enjoy their favorite menu items to-go; the store will begin offering online ordering channels in the coming weeks. The new Times Square flagship joins Jollibee's existing Manhattan location (609 8th Avenue, New York, NY 10018), which opened back in 2018 to tremendous fanfare.
Jollibee was built on the simple desire to bring families together through the shared joy of a delicious meal, and to this day, Jollibee remains steadfast in promoting the importance of strong family values in communities around the world. For its Times Square opening Jollibee is thrilled to be partnering with the All Stars Project, a national nonprofit organization that uses a performance-based approach to help tens of thousands of inner-city youth and their families create success in their lives. Founded in New York City in 1981, the All Stars Project is aptly located in the heart of Times Square's theatre district, where its 31,000 square-foot performing arts and development center features theatres, rehearsal rooms, set and costume shops, and offices of its national staff.
Opening its doors in this globally recognized destination also symbolizes the "crown jewel" of Jollibee's expansion efforts to date, as it continues toward its goal of operating 500 stores across North America by 2028. Recently recognized as a "Hottest Brand" by leading industry publication, Ad Age, Jollibee will be bringing it signature brand of joy to several new U.S. markets in the coming months, including Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Orlando, Florida.

Zeeboat Lauds US Senate’s Passage of Climate and Tax Bill
Zeeboat, LLC, an emerging developer of zero-emission, fully electric towboats for container on barge transportation between U.S. ports and inland waterway terminals, today praised the United States Senate for passing the Climate and Tax Bill, also known as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The bill includes $3 billion for installation of zero-emission port equipment or technology to use at or to directly serve U.S. ports.
“The new legislation will provide historic levels of funding for U.S. ports to apply commercially available electrification technologies that are both environmentally and economically beneficial,” said Zeeboat CEO Jonathan Braun. “These technologies range from electric towboats and tugboats, electric switcher locomotives to electric vehicles, and cargo handling equipment and associated charging infrastructure.”
New York-based Zeeboat is dedicated to furthering maritime decarbonization with a focus on partnering with ports for design and implementation of fully electric and hybrid diesel-electric powered vessels and port electrification. Zeeboat has entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Houston, Texas-based Industrial Service Solutions (ISS) to develop a pipeline of such projects. ISS is currently soliciting proposals from U.S. shipyards for the construction of up to four fully electric towboat hulls for Zeeboat. These will be the first zero-emissions towboats to serve North American waters. Beginning in 2025, Zeeboat plans to charter the vessels for operation at U.S. ports to transit containers on barges between terminals.
Shift Clean Energy will deliver the battery energy storage systems pivotal to the emissions-reduction goals of the electric towboat project. ISS is Shift Clean Energy's sole channel partner for the United States. For more information, visit www.zeeboat.com.

Omar Cook Dedicates “Coke Boys” Crime Drama Film To 90s Film Directors
Rising actor and filmmaker, Omar Cook, dropped an action packed trailer to his new crime drama short film Coke Boys. The high-intensity film brings the tone and vibe of hit shows BMF, Snowfall, and Power packed into 21 minutes.
“Crime drama is my favorite genre to watch, so I wanted to create an entertaining film that was dramatic and gave life lessons at the same time. I like to show characters going through crazy situations to generate an emotional response from the audience and will leave them thinking afterwards. Legendary filmmakers such as John Singleton did an amazing job making you feel empathy for his characters through such dramatic situations," said Cook.
This film pays homage to '90s crime dramas New Jack City, Menace II Society, Juice, and Boyz n the Hood, with some of the characters being named after pivotal characters from these classic films. Omar Cook and Adonis Armstrong tag team to co-direct this thriller short film. The duo racked up over 20 awards in international film festivals this year from short films SKANDALOUZ and Deadly Thoughts, including Best Short Film, Best Debut Filmmaker, Best Actor, and Best Drama.
Coke Boys follows Cain (played by Cook), a major Los Angeles drug dealer, and his crew as they supply the streets with cocaine and pills, while taking out anyone standing in their way. The operation becomes shaky after one of his crew members, Trey (played by Armstrong), turns police informant, creating tension from within. Cain is caught between a booming drug operation and disloyalty among his associates.
The film features outstanding performances from D’Asia Kaliyah as Mya, Clay Cureton as Detective Harvey, and Andrew Smith as Q. Other supporting performances include Josh Butler, Michael Middleton, Alexander Texidor, Jon Budinoff, Jermaine Edmondson, and Shala White.
Coke Boys has received high praise from film critics such as Film Threat, UK Film Review, Screen Critix, and Take 2 Indie Film Review.
“As well as writing and directing, Cook also excels in the lead role playing the big shot dealer Cain; his performance is genuinely powerful and he has a presence on screen that suggests he is destined for bigger things,” said Jolly Moel from Screen Critix.
“I have nothing but immense admiration for filmmakers like Cook and Armstrong, who will stop at nothing to tell their stories and make their movies. Budget be damned! The filmmakers pull out all the stops to tell a gritty crime story while making good use of the limited resources at their disposal. Coke, guns, and tough-talking characters are on full display, yet Cook and Armstrong know that their story of loyalty, survival, and betrayal is of utmost importance," added
Alan Ng from Film Threat.
The soundtrack helps elevate the mood and tone of the film featuring multiple unreleased tracks from rising hip hop artists LijahT and William Prize.
Coke Boys is expected to do a major festival run and has already racked up multiple awards including Best Actor, Best Crime Short, and Critics Choice Award for Best Narrative Short at Virgin Spring Cinefest. It also won Honorable Mention for Best Short Film at IndieEye Film Awards. The action packed trailer leaves you eager to see the full film in anticipation. 247LC Films is on a roll with their third short film of the year and this one certainly did not disappoint.

Teen's Cautionary Tale on Financial Literacy Purchased by California School District, Author Royalties Donated to Human Rights Cause
Anaheim Unified School District in California recently agreed to order over 100 copies of high schooler Rahil Luthra’s book The Scam of the Sugar Farm.
This children’s book is loosely based on the Delhi Land and Finance (DLF) land grab case of 2013 in Haryana, India. Corrupt politicians and businessmen used Section 4 of Indian law to unfairly convince Indian farmers to sell their land for unfairly cheap prices. Millions of dollars were made by these corrupt politicians and businessmen. There are documented numbers for these DLF cases, but there are thousands of cases like this in India and worldwide every year.
During a trip to India in 2016, Rahil Luthra was inspired to write this story when he witnessed his uncle break down in tears after explaining he could no longer financially support his own family. He had owned a farm in Amipur and had been coerced to sell his land for a quarter of what it was worth. Rahil realized that this wasn’t an isolated event. Since local residents had not been educated in finance nor have a basic knowledge of the local laws, this is a common occurrence.
Rahil Luthra is a high school student at Oxford Academy, the number one high school in California and 11th in the US (Source: US News 2020). After graduation, Rahil plans to pursue a career in financial law. He hopes to create a task force to help people in remote villages of India stand up for their legal rights.
Luthra is an active ambassador to the CRY America Foundation, which educates children in developing nations. He has personally raised thousands of dollars for the cause and hopes that others will join the fight to end financial illiteracy globally.
The Scam of the Sugar Farm was published by Artist Madrid Books this past April and is available for purchase through Amazon. All Author Royalties from book sales will be donated by Luthra to the CRY America Foundation.

Local Homeowners Win Prestigious Design Award
Hillside House, a black metal-clad modernist home designed and owned by architect Doug Pierson, AIA, and his wife, designer Youn Choi of pod architecture + design, won a prestigious Jury Award during the 2022 George Matsumoto Prize competition.
Leland Little Auctions in Hillsborough hosted this year's awards ceremony on Thursday, July 28. The Matsumoto Prize was created in 2012 by non-profit NC Modernist to honor architect George Matsumoto, FAIA, one of the founding faculty members of North Carolina State University's College of Design. The Matsumoto Prize is North Carolina's highest honor exclusively for modernist residential architecture throughout the state.
According to NC Modernist's founder and director George Smart, the jurors appreciated the symbiosis between the architecture and the land. Yet they were most impressed by Pierson's and Choi's design decisions that, as parents, they knew would enhance daily life for their young-adult child with autism. According to the couple's award submission, "an ideal floorplan developed within the long, narrow form...[that] offers visible connectivity across the length and height of the house to facilitate communication. It also provides retreat spaces for privacy."
Located on a wooded lot in an established neighborhood near downtown Carrboro, Hillside House is a long, slender, three-level home that directly responds to the natural terrain in form and plan. Its black metal exterior and cantilevered corner decrease its impact on the landscape and natural hydrology.
