Freshii Offers Free Kids Meals on Weekends in White Plains

A fast-causal White Plains restaurant is offering free meals to children under 10 to try to increase healthier diets.

Freshii White Plains recently announced the Freshii Kids Eat Free program, in which children age 10 and under can choose a free entree from the kids menu on Saturdays and Sunday when their meal is accompanied by the purchase of an adult entree.
