NASHUA Chick-fil-A will open its first standalone restaurant in the state this fall, and the construction of the 377 Amherst St. site is already taking shape.

But one important thing hasnt happened: The restaurant has yet to give out free meals for a whole year to its first 100 diners, an offer so good, it has led to people camping out in front of soon-to-open restaurants elsewhere in the country.

The restaurant is set to open in about six weeks, and its only the second Chick-fil-A location in the state, in addition to the counter at the Pheasant Lane Mall food court in south Nashua.

The restaurant will create about 80 new jobs, and will be owned and operated by Anthony Piccola, according to a statement from the company.

The Nashua restaurant is part of the Atlanta-based companys expansion in New England. The first standalone locations have opened or will open soon in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, according to the company.

The Amherst Street restaurant will have seating for 140 diners, plus a patio. It will have two drive-thru lanes and will offer Wi-Fi and a play area for toddlers, the company said.

Piccola has operated the Chick-fil-A at the Pheasant Lane Mall since 2009.

The company has opened 93 restaurants across the country this year, creating more than 7,000 jobs. It reported more than $5 billion in sales in 2013.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) Girard Brasserie and Bruncherie, at Girard Avenue and Marlborough Street in Fishtown, is still under construction, but its getting more attention than your typical restaurant opening due to its no tipping model.

That means theyll be paying all staff members a living wage plus fringe benefits.

How can they afford that? The hard and fast answer to that is the owners make a lot less money, says co-owner Cristian Mora.

Those who attended a job fair for the restaurant say Moras business model is quite attractive.

Benefits, paid days, sick days, thats wonderful! Thats every workers dream! says server Sean Lynch, 21.

Server Alexa Koch, 26, agrees:

I hope it would catch on because its better to make a living wage instead of not knowing if youre able to make a living wage and pay water, etc.

New Fishtown Restaurant Turning Heads With Its No Tipping Policy

At the Otra Cocina restaurant on St. Paul's East Side, Maria Capouch and her brother Miguel Linares no longer bother to serve breakfast.

Road work this summer around the intersection of Payne and Maryland avenues has decimated their dinner crowd, as well, so they close two hours early. On Thursday, they greeted their first lunch customer at 4 p.m.

"It's been really, really hard," said Capouch, who opened the cozy, family-run restaurant and catering business in January.

The Payne-Maryland intersection this summer took its place among a sea of detour signs and construction cones on the East Side. Even getting into or out of the area has become more difficult, thanks to a lengthy state project on Interstate 35E and construction of the new Lafayette Bridge.

Then this week, the city announced more road work: The Kellogg Boulevard bridge between the downtown Union Depot transit hub and Mounds Boulevard closed Friday for restriping. When the bridge reopens Monday, its four lanes will be reduced to three.

St. Paul and Ramsey County officials say the repair projects are doing more than filling potholes. In some cases, sidewalks are being widened, lighting upgraded and improvements made for drivers and pedestrians alike.

"It's been a tough summer; there's no question about it," said city council member Dan Bostrom. "However, particularly when this intersection at Payne and Maryland is completed, it's going to totally transform this section of the neighborhood.

Bostrom is less enthusiastic about the city's plans to replace the Kellogg Boulevard bridge -- work that could take several years.

"If that thing gets shut down, that's going to be a major catastrophe," he said.
