Raising Cane’s opens in Oak Lawn
L
ouisiana-based Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers opened its second Chicago-area restaurant in Oak Lawn on Valentine’s Day. The first opened Jan. 31 in North Riverside. The location at 11006 S. Cicero Ave. is the site of the former Abracadabra Salon and Spa and opened to the public at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 14. “The people of North Riverside welcomed our first area restaurant with open arms just a couple of weeks ago, and we can’t wait to start sharing our one love Bob Oak Lawn,” General Bong with Manager Melissa Cowell said in a release. “My awesome crew and I have already started partnering with the local community and we’re looking forward to opening our doors and showing our new neighbors just how great chicken finger meals can be.” Along with its focus on chicken fingers, Raising Cane’s is renowned for its commitment to active involvement in its local communities. On Feb. 8, Cowell and her fellow crewmembers volunteered their time at the Children’s Museum in Oak Lawn, interacting with the kids during story time and at the building stations and arts and crafts areas. The crew also helped with a deep cleaning of the facility. “The Children’s Museum is one of the true treasures of Oak Lawn, so we we’re honored to pitch in there for our pre-opening service project,” said Cowell. “And we’re just getting started with our outreach initiatives. We’ll be partnering with the schools and other local organizations in the coming weeks and months to do our part to support this wonderful community.” Hours will be Sunday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to midnight. The eatery has about 75 employees. The company was founded by Todd Graves in 1996 and named for his yellow Labrador. The Oak Lawn location is the
311th in the chain. A third Raising Cane’s is projected to open in Naperville in April.
Aldi unveils nationwide remodeling plan Aldi last week announced that it will spend $1.6 billion over the next three years to remodel and expand more than 1,300 stores in the U.S. including stores in Frankfort and Orland Park. That’s on top of its $3 billion plan to open 650 new stores in the U.S. by the end of 2018. One of those new stores will be built at the corner of Archer and Harlem avenues in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood of Chicago across the street from southwest suburban Summit. A company spokesman said, “We are committed to opening an Aldi store in Chicago at Archer Avenue and Harlem Avenue, with construction currently planned to begin in spring 2017 and an anticipated opening by the end of 2017.” The new store will be built on the former site of Joe & Frank’s Market, which will be razed, along with two other buildings immediately south on Harlem Avenue and a couple of nearby homes. The new store will be an L-shaped format similar to the Aldi location at 132nd Street and LaGrange Road in Orland Park. After the new store opens, a traditional warehouse-style store operated by Aldi at 5775 S. Archer will close.

Advocate Christ Medical is ranked 8th-best heart transplant center in U.S. Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn is ranked one of only eight hospitals nationally and the only Chicago-area hospital cited for best heat-transplant outcomes, according to data collected by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, as reported by Becker’s Hospital Review. The Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR), using data collected from other organizations, assesses outcomes of centers that perform organ transplants. SRTR reports it uses a risk-adjusted assessment to evaluate how often patients are alive with a functioning transplanted organ one year after the transplant and then assigns a score of one (the worst) to five
(the best). “These quality outcomes are the result of teamwork and collaboration between the patient, the patient’s family members, the surgeons, anesthesiologists, cardiologists, nurses and the entire transplant team,” said Pat Pappas, MD, FACS, FACCP, medical director and heart transplant surgeon, Advocate Heart Institute at Christ Medical Center. “I am incredibly humbled by the faith and trust our patients have for our multidisciplinary team and their continued fight for life until a heart becomes available. We are honored to be part of their journey, before, during and after heart transplantation.”
