Chicken Salad Chick, the nation’s only fast-casual chicken salad restaurant concept, has signed a multi-unit franchise agreement to open four new locations in New Orleans.
The first restaurant is scheduled to open in 2025, with three additional locations in various stages of development.
This expansion adds to the brand’s existing presence in the South, including 12 locations currently open in Louisiana.
The new restaurants will be owned by Bill DiPaola and his wife Anne, along with their business partners Tiffany and Paul Spring. This team embodies a strong entrepreneurial spirit, overcoming personal challenges, and a dedication to community enrichment, aligning perfectly with Chicken Salad Chick’s mission.
New Orleans has one of the best restaurant scenes in the Southeast, and with state of Southern cooking and an emphasis on the culinary arts at an all-time high, that’s saying something.
When New Orleans’ food is mentioned on a national level, it somehow always reverts back to gumbo, which is the best around, although the city’s eateries certainly represent those dishes well, there’s so much more.
