sell chicken tenders
Ask any BU student where to get the best chicken fingers around- most of them will tell you Raising Cane�s right here in Allston, and the ones that don�t are probably being conscious of their consistently long lines. It�s a unique spot both in name and location- of their ~311 restaurants, this is the only one north of Ohio, which by contrast has 8. (For those curious about the name, I urge you to dismiss that curiosity. I�ve read the whole story and it kind of explains it but not really.) What I find most interesting about Raising Cane�s is that they sell chicken tenders- only chicken tenders, aside from coleslaw, fries, and texas toast. (OK, technically, they have a chicken sandwich where they put the tenders on a bun with lettuce and sauce.) But how, exactly, does that business model thrive in 2017- a time when dietary restricted consumers are catered to at almost every major restaurant? Since I�m no businessman, I�ll go with Occam�s razor; they just sell really tasty chic...
