Review of Post Malone’s Raising Cane’s Franchise in Midvale Utah

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, here comes Post Malone, Grammy-award-winning singer-songwriter and now, chicken restaurateur, steering the fast-food industry into heretofore uncharted territories with his newly minted Raising Cane’s outlet in Midvale, Utah​1​. What’s next, T.Swift launching a line of artisanal meatloaf diners?

This isn't just any old Raising Cane’s, oh no. This particular franchise is located at 890 Fort Union Blvd, comfortably nestled near Posty’s own home, because when you’ve reached a certain level of fame and fortune, why settle for delivery when you can just custom design your own fast-food joint next door? The term "home delivery" just got a whole new meaning​1​.

If the idea of a celebrity-owned fast food outlet doesn't immediately strike you as the eighth wonder of the world, perhaps the vision of a solid pink building plastered with Post Malone’s tattoo imagery will. It's like the architect was a rebellious teenager who was told they could design a fast-food restaurant and decided to have a bit too much fun with the color palette. Not to mention the giant 1974 Ford F250 permanently parked out front, fresh from its cameo in one of Post Malone's music videos. Talk about cross-promotion​1​.

Upon entering, you're greeted by an array of Post Malone's personal items on display. It's a bit like walking into a museum dedicated to a man who is very much alive and hasn't even hit middle age yet. Add to that a suit of gothic medieval armor standing guard in the restrooms, and it all becomes very clear: you're not just in a chicken joint, you're in Post Malone's chicken joint​1​.

And it's not just the decor that's got the Posty stamp. The 'Posty Way Combo' is a new addition to the menu, boasting four chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, two Cane’s Sauces, two Texas toasts, extra salt and pepper packets and a half unsweet tea/half lemonade in a 32 oz. Collector’s Cup, because why settle for a regular combo meal when you can have a celebrity-endorsed one? To the relief of taste buds everywhere, the combo does not include a side of Post's favorite tattoos​1​.

All said, if you're a Post Malone fan, or a chicken finger enthusiast, or someone who likes their fast food with a side of gothic medieval armor, this new Raising Cane's is just the place for you. And if you're none of those things? Well, at the very least, it's a conversation starter​1​.
