Raising Cane's
More chicken,* but the angle at Raising Cane’s is that they only have ONE thing: chick fingers. FRIED chick fingers. OK they have slaw & FF too but you get what I’m saying. But chick fingers are pretty dang popular – big hit w/ kids, in nugget form at McD’s, the basis of everything at Chick-fil-A, even Wingstop now has a version they call "boneless chick wings". Raising Cane has a backstory: spawned in baton rouge by a go-get-em prodigy (whose "brainstorm" owes oodles to a chickchain from the SE called Zaxby’s) who named the chain for his dog. The chick fingers are "fresh, never frozen", as if that matters to the grease-lovin’ audience.

Zaxby's is much good. (Except for their desire to include Texas Toast with everything.)
As the late, great Louis Jordan so eloquently said...
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens, There ain't nobody here at all"
Raising Cane's has Texas toast too. Some coincidence, hah
Do the fingers come with a side of Tamiflu?
When she got older, my grandmother did look like a chicken.
If it walks like a chicken and clucks like a chicken, well then, it's a chicken.
I'LL EAT AN OLD LADY IF I HAVE TO.
Does this mean that the founder named his dog "Cane"? The whole thing seems rather silly. And I'm sick of chicken alrleady.
HEY! HOW COME THAT DAMN DOG IS STEALING MY SHTICK???
btw, emmjay points out this story that came out a coupla days ago about coke hoping to branch out into coffee. (of course, it being a typical media-generated story, it uses the dumbest, most unimaginative metaphor, which in this case is - of course - STARBUCKS. soda's sinking & coke desperately looks at coffee and somehow that = "coke wants to compete with STARBUCKS"? journalists SUCK!) ... but dream on to coke, who's developing pre-measured (inferior quality) "instant pods", and who's been stumblin thru one loser move after another. don't you love these huge companies, all drooling over Starbucks?
chicken fingers! how blah. give me a place that sells gizzards and livers.
tg:
not being a starbucks aficionado, (gasp!) i can only laugh, hah hah, at these companies trying to mimic the business practices.
i prefer to find a locally owned cafe, they seem to try harder.
but, speaking of chicken, the sweet tea at chick-fil-a is the best, although i rarely eat the food.
I'd like local cafes better if they cleaned their equipment every so often, but it's the rare local cafe that has the kind of maintenance program observed by St-- er, some large chains. I just supported a "local cafe" yesterday whose foaming wand sported about 6 months' worth of crusted-over milk residue. tasty
"give me a place that sells gizzards and livers."
God, you and my wife. ICK!!
Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!
