This restaurant was only three hundred and eighty four square feet of space; however by having such a limited amount of space Cathy was able to keep cost down. Cathy opened this restaurant for seventeen thousand dollars an amount that was far less than he anticipated. Opening restaurants in malls Cathy concluded was a way to get more selling capacity per dollar (Fame, 2005). The menu for the restaurant was simple, it consisted of five items; boneless chicken breast sandwich, potato fries, coleslaw, lemon pie, and lemonade. Over the course of years new items would be added to the menu; however the original Chick-fil-A sandwich would always be the leading sandwich.

People speculate endlessly about supernatural powers over pain and heat, or mysterious brain chemicals that block the pain and prevent burning. The simple explanation is that the capacity of light and fluffy coals to contain heat is very low, and the conductivity of heat from the light and fluffy coals to your feet is very poor. As long as you don't stand around on the coals, you will not get burned. (Think of a cake in a 450°F oven. The air, the cake, and the pan are all at 450°F, but only the metal pan will burn your hand.
