San Francisco-based Chicken as Cluck has opened its newest location at 5610 North IH 35, in Austin. As the first restaurant established in the Cloud Ghost Kitchens, they’ll offer an everchanging menu of high-quality, uniquely inspired fresh fried chicken dishes for online ordering, pick-up, delivery and catering services. The restaurant is widely known for its humorous menu names and descriptions, juicy chicken, signature “Secret AF Dipping Sauce,” and constant weekly secret menu surprises.
“Eclectic Austin is the perfect market for our second location,” said Chicken as Cluck Owner Bua Vanitsthian. “I wanted to create a funny, memorable experience for our customers, so we incorporated humor into our menu names and food descriptions. I just wanted our people to have a good time reading our menu, followed by an outstanding quality of food at an affordable price.”
The first Chicken as Cluck location opened by Vanitsthian in San Francisco in December 2019. As a young female entrepreneur, she had to prove her restaurant strategy would work and was scalable. A year later, Vanitsthian has achieved tremendous success and is looking to open a third location in Dallas in the Spring of 2021. Hours of operation will be Tuesdays through Sundays, 10:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m.
With hopes to be popular with Austinites, Chicken as Cluck is widely known for its humorous menu names and descriptions, juicy chicken, signature “Secret AF Dipping Sauce,” and constant weekly secret menu surprises. Popular menu items include Chicken Chunks (Regular, 9-Pepper Deliciousness, and Nashville Hot); Bavarian Churros; Big Papa Poppers; Nashville Hot Burritos, and Double-Dredged Fries. Limited-edition and special holiday items will be rolled out every weekend.

New Orleans, LA - On October 22, 2024, I recently had an opportunity to attend the grand opening of Caesars New Orleans, marking the completion of a stunning $435 million transformation of the former Harrah’s New Orleans. It was an evening to remember, filled with excitement, luxury, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. The festivities began on Canal Street with an exhilarating ceremony led by Caesars Entertainment CEO Tom Reeg, President & COO Anthony Carano, and Caesars New Orleans General Manager Samir Mowad. The atmosphere was electric as they joined Caesar himself and an iconic New Orleans second-line band in a lively procession into the casino. It felt like the entire city had come out to celebrate, with Caesars New Orleans team members and Mayor LaToya Cantrell also joining the event to commemorate this historic occasion. Anthony Carano’s pride in introducing Caesars to New Orleans was palpable. “From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it,” he said. The ceremony was a spectacle, kicking off with an iconic Mardi Gras float featuring Caesar and his court, and a dazzling firework show that lit up the New Orleans sky. The second-line band then led us revelers into the resort’s elegant center bar, Octavia, where we indulged in a “Taste of Caesars New Orleans.” Each bite from the six on-property restaurants was a delightful journey, capturing the essence of New Orleans’ rich culinary scene. Throughout the night, elemental entertainers, including the Saints Cheer Krewe, Mardi Gras Indians, Zulu Tramps, and showgirls, created an authentic and unforgettable Big Easy experience. Everywhere I turned, there was something new to marvel at, each performance more mesmerizing than the last. Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, highlighted the significance of the transformation, stating, “This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.” The hotel itself is impressive,…
