After CFA takes NYC by storm I think it can finally have the crown as GOAT Fast Food spot.

Good. This will keep the poors out, like those complaining about Krog's 'high' prices.

And LOL to the Chickfila comment. Sounds like someone that lives OTP and eats CFA every day for lunch in their car in the back of the employee lot and throws the empty nugget boxes on the floor of the passenger side of their 2002 PT Cruiser.

The Farm to Ladel place was open today. May check it out when I have 20 minutes to stand in a line. Spiller Park coffee has a temporary stand open. I saw a bunch of employees gearing up in the H&F Burger spot, they look like they are just about ready to go!

I work there and a lot the people, including myself, would take a CFA over anything that is coming in a heartbeat. I mean, everything looks pretty exciting, but when it comes down to it, CFA is the right price/quality/speed ratio for lunch. People generally don't have $12 - $15 for lunch. I'm not really complaining, but I certainly wish a CFA was coming in.

As far as parking goes, the first five hours are apparently free with the ParkMobile app. They keep repeating that and they never say it is a one time use. I would check that out. Parking near the rear entrance is free for 30 mins. I would be cautious not paying, those parking folks just stand guard and watch for people coming in and out. It's crazy.

If you can't see a distinction between the places at KSM and a fast food restaurant, why not save yourself the money? Easier parking for the rest of us.

From what I've read, Spiller park will only operate a kiosk so its not temporary.

Per this description, it is going to actually be a shop with 25+ seats. Right now it is a small kiosk.

They need to offer the shuttle to visitors, on the weekends and evenings.
