Get Your Chicken, Watermelon and Liquor All in One Place
I frequent New Orleans for a lot of weekend vacays and always pass this shopping center that has everything any Southerner could want for an afternoon picnic.
Chicken and Watermelon, next door to the Hit-and-Run Liquor, is on Claiborne Avenue and the parking lot was packed Friday afternoon.
I opted not to go inside - I don't want to ruin the enigma that is a place with a name as awesome as Chicken and Watermelon. I would be horribly disappointed if there was not an elaborate selection of fresh watermelon.
I do want to know, however, if there is a franchising opportunity.
