Wing Stop is now open in Mustang Crossing. They’re located near the Lowe’s, behind Auto Zone. If you’re in the WalMart parking lot, drive towards Lowe’s, then keep going, the shopping center at the very end there is where Wing Stop is and where Lucky’s Sports Grill will be. As soon as I can find their phone number, I’ll post it, because I know most of their locations do phone-ahead ordering, but I’m not sur e if they deliver or not. Check back shortly for more info!

I’ll be glad once Chick-Fil-A is open so that we can all stop guessing when they’re opening! I’ve heard about four different dates, including two “official” dates - one purporting to be from the Chamber of Commerce, and one purporting to be from the interim city manager. Click “Read On” below for the dates. Also, Starbucks should be on track to open on Saturday, June 29th.

Double Dave’s Pizzaworks has a sign up on their space in Shafer Plaza now! No word on when they’ll be opening, but I can’t wait. For those who aren’t familiar with Double Dave’s, they’re similar to a Cici’s in that they’re primarily a pizza buffet, although they also deliver. The quality is amazing for the price, it’s great pizza, with some unique flavors.

A Quiznos sub/sandwich shop has been rumored for quite some time in Forney - I can now confirm that a Quizno’s will be opening in Forney; it will be located between the Cingular Store and the dentist’s office in Shafer Plaza, near the Sonic on FM-548, on the other side of 548 from Wal-Mart. They have gotten some of their signs up and are starting work on finishing out their space in Shafer Plaza. Finally, Sport Clips, which is also in that building, will be opening very soon, from the looks of things.

Whew…I’m almost caught up from being gone for a while there for my wedding and honeymoon. It’s amazing to see how much things have changed even in the couple of weeks we were gone - it looks like the indoor playground has been installed at Chick-Fil-A, and most of their exterior work looks finished, except for installing the lights around the parking lot, which it looks like they’ve been trying to do for a while but the weather hasn’t been cooperating.
