An LA Restaurant Caught Serving Popeyes Will Now Launch the Chain’s New Sandwich

Back in 2017, Long Beach, Calif. restaurant Sweet Dixies got itself into hot water for trying to pass off Popeyes’ chicken as its own.

The ruse had been going pretty well until a Yelp review—and subsequent story in the Long Beach Post—called them out.

The owner responded with a heavy dose of snark and indignation and the article was picked up by Huffington Post, ABC and Complex among others.

The “Louisiana Kitchen” is releasing the brand’s first nationwide chicken sandwich on Aug. 12th, but first, it will be available at Sweet Dixies today and tomorrow as a preview for the eventual launch at the QSR’s stores.

“To be honest, I thought they were calling to sue me,” said Sánchez.

“We have a long history with Popeyes, but we’ve always said Popeyes chicken is the best fried chicken we ever had.
