Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken and Calliope Massage Studio (7346 Manchester Road) are on the Maplewood Planning and Zoning agenda for Wednesday, March 4 at 7 p.m.
McDonald’s is not on the agenda. The company’s lawyers requested a continuance, and is now set to present at the April 1 plan and zoning meeting.
I’m not buying any Gus’s until they commit to hemp plates and cups! I don’t care if styrofoam can be re-cycled and it will help this franchisee pay her bills! Hemp or nothin’.
Big deal! I’m gonna eat it no matter what they serve it on.
Foundation Grounds deserves our gratitude and admiration for their commitment to using compostable containers for their takeout food. I learned on my last visit there that even their clear plastic drink cups and lids are compostable. Amazing!
Food looks great, but I agree Styrofoam doesn’t look like our family’s style.
Mmmm, styrofoam.
