After waiting for what seemed like a looooong time for new Target to open on Airline Drive in Bossier City, I expected the VIG (Very Important Guest) event would be the party of the year. Alas, it was not to be.
My husband and I dressed up last night - all excited for the ribbon cutting and new Target event. I have gone to similar soft openings and found live music, food tastings, vendors offering samples and more. When we arrived at the new Target, though, it was business pretty much as usual. There was a lonely clown, and a sandwich tray, some discounts, and that was about it.
People inside were shopping as if the new store had always been there.
Maybe the opening of Chik-Fil-A has tainted me. After all, it's hard to top the chance to win free food for a year and that's what the fast food chicken outlet offered people who came from as far as Arkansas. Chik-Fil-A fans even spent the night in the parking lot before the opening.
I can only hope Sunday's official grand opening is better.

New Mexican place in North Bossier
I've been driving past the almost-built restaurant next to McAllister's deli off Airline Road for the past two months. I'm always curious to see if Bossier is going to get another restaurant to try out. So, imagine my surprise when I saw that the building had a sign that said Ta Molly's.
Ta Molly's? I've never heard of it - have you?
So, I called the corporate headquarters and found out a little about it.
If all goes as planned, Bossier City will soon be home to Ta Molly’s, a privately-owned, Mexican-style eatery off Airline Drive across from the new Target shopping center.
Ta Molly’s which according to its website www.tamollys.com, promises fresh ingredients at affordable prices, can be found in Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana.
The eatery features lunch specials from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Sunday.
Food choices include the Crispy Puffed Taco with seasoned meat, layered with chili con queso, sharing the menu with more American-style items such as chicken fried steak. Lunches start at about $5 with guacamole added - so that's really great news.
A call to the company’s corporate office in Texarkana today, said there have been some delays for the restaurant’s opening.
