When I feel like blowing my low carb eating regimen I head to Raising Cane's, otherwise known as chicken carb city! It's worth every single carb and calorie to eat here. Their chicken fingers are cooked to order so you'll never get cold food or soggy fries. You can't go wrong with anything on the very simple menu. Your choices are chicken fingers, cole slaw, Texas toast and fries. Pro tip: when watching calories you can order the kid's meal for under $5 and get a tiny drink, a special prize, 2 fingers and a smaller portion of fries. That's my guilty pleasure and they've never given me grief when I order one for myself.
I grew up in the South and I think their freshly brewed iced tea is legit. They have sweetened and unsweetened varieties and both are excellent. Dine in and get all the free refills you can handle. Sometimes I'll swing by just for a large cup of tea.
This location is open very late and has a drive-thru. Kids seem to love it too. In fact, I've never met anybody who didn't love Raising Cane's. It's high quality food that's made fresh. I never mind the short wait after ordering because the food is being made just for me; it's heat lamp free.
Bonus points for the super duper friendly and enthusiastic staff, the spotlessly clean dining room, and the booth with a "Wall-E" poster on the wall (my favorite movie of all time). That's my special seat so keep it free for me guys, thanks!
