What started as a chicken salad business run out of founders Stacy and Kevin Brown’s home in Alabama has grown to 63 units in three states. The menu offers a variety of chicken salad options in the form of sandwiches, salads or “a scoop,” along with soups, pimento cheese and desserts. The chain plans to continue to expand in the South and will soon be opening its first location in Mississippi.
