and Sidney Torres is involved; see proposed locations

quote:

Council Member Kristin Gisleson Palmer announced that permission had been granted for the popular chicken sandwich purveyors to open at the Algiers Plaza shopping center on the West Bank, which she pointed out would be the first standalone outlet in Orleans Parish.


Except that Xavier has a restaurant on it's campus....however I guess it doesnt classify as "stand alone"

quote:

the Atlanta-based chain has applied for permission to locate two more restaurants on the east bank of the parish, one in Mid-City and the other in the Central Business District


quote:

The Mid-City outlet would be drive-thru only and located on the corner of Tulane Avenue and South Carrollton Avenue


quote:

"A new 2,600 square foot restaurant [will be built] ... further from Carrollton Avenue than the existing building," it says. "The new site plan would include two drive through lanes, thirty stacking spaces, nineteen parking spaces, and sixteen patio seats."


quote:

the proposed downtown Chick-fil-A would be located on the ground floor at 1200 Poydras, the building best known now for the Dave & Buster's sports bar and arcade on the sixth floor, according to the documents filed with the city.

That Chick-fil-A would cater to pedestrian-only customers

One of the largest Amazon FCs in the world, and now a drive thru only CFA and a walk up only CFA?

Man... Louisiana turning into a capital of experimental ideas!

Although successful, something about Sidney Torres rubs me the wrong way.

I’ll be honest I kind of like New Orleans not littered with fast food restaurants. And I love CFA.

I go down Tulane almost everyday. Keep the dead Tores chicken place there or the traffic will be hell.

Who the hell thinks you can train these fast food employees in the city. There is no high school of any standing to pull emoloyees from and there is zero chance any parent is going to let their children work in these neighborhoods, muchless at night.so the next group is the 20 somethings who will not meet any of the chick fil a standards. It will be my pleasure.

I live in New Orleans and I like Chik -Fil-A and I think this is a horrible horrible idea

These will quickly become (instantly?) the worst Chik-Fil-A restaurants on the planet for the obvious reasons.

Think a CFA needs to open on Jefferson between Ochsner and parish line. You’ll constantly stay busy between the hospital and uptown area residents flocking and you don’t have to pay Orleans parish taxes.

Will they have a foot washing station for the white employees to atone for their evil whiteness?

I thought Chick-fil-A requires the franchisees to work in the store. Can’t see Torres refilling straw dispensers.

Will be interesting if the service which Chick fil a is known for stays strong at this location.
