The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Night

[picasso swerve]

Folks who hate on the Cheesecake Factory are culinary hot take artists. The menu is as thick as encyclopedia and has something for literally everybody. Probably the only restaurant that I can honestly claim has no holes in its menu. There is no way someone can't find something that tickles their fancy there.

Louisana Pasta Chicken my ****. Portion is huge too.

No olive garden slander. The first restaurant I remember going to when I came to the states was an Olive Garden. They were so nice to us and it was pretty obvious that we didn't have it like that based on how impressed we were with the concept of an Olive Garden. Server was mad nice. I had swordfish. Will never forget it.

Give me a specialty restaurant with a limited menu, over something like Cheesecake Factory. Cheesecake Factory chefs have to learn how to cook like 100+ items from various cultures

Well yeah duh but you know what you getting into going to a CF.

only time i step into the OG is when momma Self wants to go

as for cheesecake factory, mall adjacent locations are thee worst. the Redondo Beach location is where i prefer to go ( but very rarely )

Oh yeah, don't even get me started there. All their portions are massive. It is undeniably a great value family restaurant. Slanderproof.

I went to cheesecake factory once and it was ***. Inlcuding the cheesecake. You don't get any second chances after that.

I gave friends 20, in 2004 Fresh/Soph scrimmage

I’d like to think Michael Malone was that coach

Nuggets in whatever

Malone was all up and down I-95 north of DC.

That’s why he’s so feisty and pops a lot of ****.

Love it.

Can't have a menu that size and have anything be good.

A fact of restaurant life.

Went once, sat down and already knew it was gonna suck.

didn't know Malone was from the tri-state area

Lol y'all think Michigan is Detroit. Detroit is one city. Oakland county is one of the richest in the country. All players live in Birmingham and Bloomfield hills. I lived down the street from Drummond and Stanley for years. They lived together. And some red wings and tigers. My area is really nice there.

Don't let the news make you think Michigan is Detroit.

Arizona is just phx, desert, 120°, cheesecake factory, Scottsdale and desert/grand canyon. Keep it a bean.

Southfield got some baddies too , where the joints go once they get a lil bag

A few months ago we ended up at Olive Garden in Hawaii of all places. We joked on ourselves that we took a 10 hour flight to end up eating there (hadn’t been there on the mainland in yearssss lol).

But it was convenient to the side of the island we were on that day, and I’ll be damned if that ravioli wasn’t ******* delicious.

Breadsticks and salad there are immune from slander, btw.

Is that above or below the Mason Dixon line?

 

[dacomeup]

I don’t like Cheesecake Factory or Olive Garden. Getting my osh kosh bosh on today. Olive Garden I went for the first time my junior prom and don’t think I finished anything besides breadsticks. Cheesecake Factory is the Taylor Swift of restaurants.

Facts no fake Italian olive garden over here

Slop

Yeah, but when you're there, you're family.

 

[lobotomybeats]

The Cheesecake Factory's menu is longer than the bible

My kids could take an AR test on that damn thing.

 

[wavycrocket]

Never been to Cheesecake Factory a day in my life.

 

[DeadsetAce]

cheesecake factory is good for what it is. olive garden can go to hell

 

[frshstunna]

The coastal people are typically louder about distaste for places they’ve never even been though

Hmmmm idk bout this…You hear more from folks in Montana or Indiana complaining about “liberal hell holes” on the coasts and blue states these days than anything else

Also, Cheesecake Factory is average on its best day…My moms had a phase where PF/cheesecake type spots was her go to restaurants and I dreaded anytime she wanted to go out to eat

 

[B Sox]

Don’t think I been to Cheesecake since high school. Nothing against it though, just more interesting options around
