Company Overviews

About Chao Cajun

Chao Cajun was initially presented in 1996 in Oxford Valley Mall in Langhorne, Pennsylvania as an other option to the common nourishment court admission. Tasty marinated menu things are arranged crisp, including our mark "Whiskey Chicken", which is all the rage.

By mirroring a quality contrasting option to standard nourishment court charge, Chao Cajun offers a rice-based menu with flare, bringing the essence of Louisiana and other noteworthy "Profound South" foods with Shrimp and Chicken to you! The outcome is a different menu empowering us to achieve a more extensive commercial center and help change it up of tastes to our client's sense of taste!

Today, Chao Cajun is offered in Mall and Airport nourishment courts all through the Southeast and Mid-Western United States.

About Tin Drum Asia Cafe

Founded in 2003, Tin Drum was created to reflect the bustling street-side cafes found throughout Asia. With the limited service operating model of fast casual and the dining experience of full casual, Tin Drum Asia Cafe is setting a new standard for the Fast Casual Dining franchise model. We call it "Fresh Casual." Our menu carries bold and broad flavor profiles; all food is cooked fresh to order in an open kitchen; the food is delivered to the guest at their table rather than being picked up at a counter; all this taking place in an environment with an elevated decor meant to evoke a bustling Asian street market.
