It was at the Dwarf House® that Truett created the Chicken Sandwich. In 1967, Cathy founded and opened the first Chick-fil-A restaurant in Atlanta's Greenbriar Shopping Center. The recipe has not changed since the Original Chicken sandwich was created. Chick-fil-A is America's #1 fast food restaurant.
