Hubby and I get Chick Fil A a few times a week. It is called the Dwarf House here and has a sitdown section complete with sweet waitresses who call us Sug and Hon. Met the pie lady at a local wholesale club and we talked awhile about our dogs. The waitstaff invisibly refills our sweet tea that we inhale and gives a wink when we order extra sandwiches for our basset hounds (no pickles) and fried sweet potato pies for my inlaws. They now have a delicious spicy white chili made with grilled chopped chicken and bring me extra sour cream ‘because that is how they like it’. When anyone steps up to the spot to be seated, a genuine smile is flashed and every single time I thank an employee, I get a pat or an arm squeeze with a ‘my pleasure’.
And for Pete’s sake, their sandwiches are out of this world with their buttered buns, the juicy fresh fried chicken and the snap of the pickle slices when you sink your teeth in them combined with their huge waffle cut french fries that are ALWAYS served piping hot, the golden crunch combined with the creaminess of the potato that is served just right is nothing short of a religious experience.
Come on people. Where else can you get a hug from the waitress when you leave any restaurant and walk out feeling like you are family??!!
Matter of fact, I propose a Freerepublic ‘lunch-in’ at the Newnan, Ga Dwarfhouse on the corner of Bullsboro Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at 1 pm which concidentally is Tuesday -Buy- One-Sandwich= Get -One-Free -when -you- dine- in day.
By God, I’ll be there.
Thanks for sharing this info, Cowgirl. No CFA in Michigan, but maybe someday. I always enjoyed their commercials and support of my #2 passion, College Football (craft beer is #1!). Now I have a more informed appreciation for the company. Great stuff!
