FILE — A new Chick Fil-A and ‘hot’ Pizza-and-Hot-Dog-and–Pizza restaurant has opened in Los Angels, California, and the new establishment has drawn the attention of a new group of concerned fans.
The Los Angeles Times reported that the new Chickfil-A opened in Hollywood, which has long been a hotbed for the alt-right.
In addition to the new restaurant, Chickfil is planning to open a Chick-Fil-A location in Pasadena and a Chickfil a Hot-dog-and Pizza in West Hollywood.
Chickfil has been a frequent target of criticism, and its founder, Dan Cathy, has faced numerous legal threats, including a $1.7 million defamation suit filed by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

We are dedicated to serving the world a food that will truly nourish and nourish our customers.”
It goes on to say that “chickfil” is the plural form of the word “chicken,” which means “white.”
“The ‘chick’ is the perfect descriptor for a ‘white person,'” the website states.
“We have a special mission to bring you the best food, service and dining experiences in the Los Angeles area, in addition to offering a wide range of products, including the world’s largest selection of fresh produce and an extensive selection of our signature foods, including our signature chicken sandwiches.”
The website is hosted on an entirely new domain, which will serve as a platform for Chickfil to advertise, share content, and engage with its supporters.
There are no new Chickfares currently operating in the Southern California area.
However, the website has been used by the far-right Daily Stormer, a website that promotes racist and anti-Semitic views, in the past.
Other new ChickFIL-A restaurants have also opened in other parts of the country.
A new “Chick-Fil” in Louisville, Kentucky, opened in May.
A Chickfil in St. Louis, Missouri, is currently being renovated.
Several Chickfil locations have already opened in Chicago, which was also recently designated a hate crime site by the U., U.K. and European Union.
