It's nice to be nice, gosh darnit! <br /><br />That said, I'm still not all that into Cheesecake Factory. I'd definitely pick it over Applebee's or Wood Ranch or Chili's, but when I eat there I can't help but think what I could be eating instead...Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06171685849585743962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335796349586797107.post-56665576987647666302009-05-06T10:11:00.000-07:002009-05-06T10:11:00.000-07:00i love cheesecake factory!

Thankfully I've been spared the fun times of these "professional" seminars at the few places I've worked.<br /><br />I think Cheesecake Factory does food the way conservative fashionistas put together outfits, only one unpronounceable element at a time to give it that nuance of "edgy" while remaining largely WASP-friendly. Not that it's a bad thing -- like you say, amiable ;)H.
