Hi all. I wondered when someone would start a thread on CRCG. I've been casually following this company for the last three years.

I used to live in OKC and I once visited the offices of CRCG (then Magnolia Foods.) The reason that I became interested in this company was because of the City Bites franchise.

The City Bites chain in Oklahoma numbers around 17. I was quite impressed by the quality of food and the concept of the restaurant. The City Bites chain in OK is still owned by the family who started the chain.

Three years ago, CRCG was expanding the City Bites chain into other states. I thought they were building one in Texas, but I have not seen or heard anything about that.

I tried calling the company a few months ago, but no one was ever in. So I called the restaurant in Wichita, to see if it was still around. I talked with one of the workers there and they were very busy. (I could hear a lot of people in the background.)

Basically what I am trying to say that this is a real company. Whether they will be successful is a big question? With the acquisition of these two new chains, CRCG is looking even more viable. Like Calvary said, they have management that has been successful with other restaurants.

Anyways, I just thought I would add my two cents worth (if it's worth that much!)
