- Description:
- Truett Cathy, the founder of Chick-fil-A, first started in the restaurant business by opening a twenty-four-hour diner in Hapeville, outside Atlanta, in 1946. Because the restaurant was so small, Cathy and his brother, Ben, decided to name the restaurant the Dwarf Grill (later changed to the Dwarf House).
