Florida chief financial officer Jimmy Patronis is cooking up a plan to bring one of California’s iconic restaurant chains to the Sunshine State, the Tallahassee Democrat reports. The popular burger chain is out of sorts with a number of local ordinances in California requiring indoor diners to show either proof of a COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test result. Patronis, who owns and operates Panama City’s Captain Anderson Restaurant and Waterfront Market, wrote the president of In-N-Out Burger, Lynsi Snyder, this month. He explained how he believes Florida shares In-N-Out Burger's opposition to vaccine mandates and offered to help Snyder explore relocating In-N-Out Burger to Florida. Snyder has yet to respond to Patronis’ overtures, but Patronis has taken his campaign to Facebook, where he posted excerpts of his pitch to Snyder.
