Let The State open its own restaurant, then.
Government business? You and we would likely complain about that. Better the state finds companies that want to be open seven-days-a week. Again, I spent nearly 10 years driving back and forth on I-87 and visited those rest areas every trip. My biggest complaint was finding places closed, leaving no options.
They used to have their own cafeterias at their rest stops, but years ago they eliminated them, and went with the fast food franchises. There used to be Roy Rogers, Quiznos, Sonic and even a Big Boy restaurant on the Thruway, but those are all gone now. Even McDonald's left in January of this year. Every open rest stop on the Thruway has an Applegreen C-Store which offers an assortment of hot food items as well as grab-and-go sandwiches and wraps, salads, coffee, snacks, drinks and more.
Exactly.
Chick-fil-A needs to say bye-bye and leave.
