Raising Cane's ready to open second San Jose restaurant

"Raising Cane's chain is known for maintaining a strict menu focus—just chicken fingers with one signature dipping sauce, crinkle-cut fries, cole slaw and Texas toast. Customers may purchase a single chicken finger, a few as a combo, loaded on a sandwich or in large party packs."

"The grand opening giveaways will include free Cane's for a year for 20 customers. Entries for that prize will be accepted from 7 to 8 a.m., with the drawing held at 8:30 a.m. Customers must be present to win. The restaurant will open at 9 a.m., and more freebies and swag are planned."

"Indoors, the restaurant will honor local schools (James Lick, Independence, Piedmont Hills and San Jose high schools) and hometown legends (Jim Plunkett, Doobie Brothers and more) with vintage photography, posters and news clippings."

"On Veterans Day and every other day of the year, a 10% Hero Discount is offered to all active military, veterans, fire, police and EMTs, as well as their families. The discount is valid on dine-in and drive-thru orders."
