[QUOTE="WPLG, post: 53805, member: 158"] Chick-fil-A may be bringing its popular chicken sandwiches and long drive-thru lines to a new location in Pembroke Pines. Residents of the West Pines area have speculated for months over what will take the place of the Sweet Tomatoes building at Westfork Plaza. According to plans submitted to the City of Pembroke Pines in June, Sarenee Properties wants to demolish the current building, which was left vacant when the soup and salad buffet-style restaurant closed its doors at the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020.
