Round-up: Maxwells opens in Mandeville … Shreveport pizza restaurant coming to B.R. … La. restaurants sue over security breach

Maxwell’s new counter: Maxwell’s Market has opened a meat and seafood counter inside the Walmart Neighborhood Market in Mandeville. Ron Lewis, who owns Maxwell’s, says Walmart officials approached him about locating in the store. Walmart has launched a pilot program of partnering with local grocery stores as a way of customizing its smaller Neighborhood Market stores. Maxwell’s is scheduled to open its third Baton Rouge location in early December on Highland Road. Shreveport pizza restaurant coming to Baton Rouge: PieWorks Pizza By Design is scheduled to take over the two buildings recently occupied by Schlotzsky’s Deli. The Shreveport-based chain says on its Web site it is going into the former Schlotzsky’s locations on Jefferson Highway and South Sherwood Forest Boulevard. PieWorks has been open since 1990, offering pizzas with a variety of toppings, including shrimp scampi and roast beef, in addition to classic pies. Several restaurants sue over security breach: Several restaurants in Baton Rouge and Lafayette have filed a class-action suit against the makers and distributors of a cash register system after hackers got in and stole thousands of credit card numbers. The restaurants say they shouldn’t be responsible for the fines levied by credit-card companies and payment processors after the hack, reports PC World magazine. Restaurants included in the suit against Radiant Systems and Computer World include Mel’s Diner in Broussard, Sammy’s Grill, Jones Creek Café, Don’s Seafood and Picante’s Mexican Grill.
