When I die I want my ashes scattered at the Cheesecake Factory. You heard me! Forget the ocean, haul my body bits to the kitchen of the greatest chain restaurant in the world!! I had the most wonderful meal at the Cheesecake Factory yesterday. If you haven't guessed, a visit here was at the tippy-top of my "Food List." I have been holding out for this gratifying moment for the last three weeks and, as usual, The Factory did not disappoint! I was a bad, bad, girl! I had the Boston House Salad as a starter, followed by Steak Diane with Shrimp Scampi. It was wonderful!! The food is spot-on every time.
Where I live there are few choices for a good meal and I am not impressed with even the town favorites. I'm generally not a fan of chain restaurants which often crank out ridiculously salty meals, but I make an exception for the Cheesecake Factory. With over two-hundred menu items to chose from, its a food lover's dream! Few places can offer such a large selection and serve so many different styles of cuisine well! The Mexican dishes are wonderful. The Thai entrees are good and the "comfort dishes" like Meatloaf and Sheppard's Pie are simply amazing! The portions are quite large and the prices reasonable. Considering all the tempting selections I could have succumb to (did I mention they serve Fried Macaroni And Cheese) I didn't do too bad. I skipped the alcohol, declined the bread, tried to limit the carbs, and passed on dessert. I also did an insane amount of walking following my meal. I'm sure everything I ate was still plenty calorific, but even just having the will-power to skip dessert at this place is nothing shy of a miracle. But like I've said before, "The Food List" is about an indulgence, not going on a mad, crazy, binge. So my infomercial for The Cheesecake Factory has come to an end. Thank you for your attention and happy eating!
