Safety Concerns Growing After Opening Of Panera Cares In Lakeview « CBS Chicago

CHICAGO (CBS) — Concern about safety is growing in one Chicago neighborhood and some residents there say a unique restaurant may be to blame.

CBS 2′s Marissa Bailey takes a look at the impact it’s having on Lakeview.

Panera Bread reopened as “Panera Cares” on June 21. The new concept meant that customers would pay what they could. If they couldn’t pay anything, the meal was free.

How do they determine who can and cannot pay? How would they stop me from getting a free sandwich?

Another Govt subsidy

Predictions on how long they last before going belly up? I say Panera Corporate will carry them for a year.

I hate things like that. I overpay and then feel guilty and pay more because after all I'm better off than some. I hate the stress, the guilt, the angst....

I don't know how the Panera is run but I love the concept of Bon Jovi's Soul Kitchen!

Does Panera pay the employees only if they want to?

Does Panera pay the employees only if they want to?

Does Panera pay the employee what the employee think they are worth?

Both questions are there to ponder.

Just WWOD?

I hope they open one up here. I could eat for free everyday and have more money to invest in video games.
