Look at this explosion of colors. My husband ordered this recently at the Cheesecake Factory, and although it was messy to put the wraps together, he said the mixture of flavors was really good.
Red velvet cake layered with cheesecake and topped with white chocolate frosting. Sugary sweetness overload...but good. This was dessert at the Cheesecake Factory Saturday.
This is deep-fried macaroni and cheese. Really! An appetizer we ordered recently at the Cheesecake Factory. I have no idea if it's truly "fried," or prepared some other way. The cheese balls are served on a bed of some type of ketchup sauce.
Dinner at the Cheesecake Factory last night. Quite a few new items on the menu since our last visit, and they FINALLY have a Kids Menu! This is caramel chicken. Ignore that big lump of rice, I think it was really just a decoration. As you might guess, it is a sweet sauce, but not sticky - tangy, with a hint of ginger. The chicken is lightly coated and crisp, and the carrots and green beans were crunchy, too.
I ordered this appetizer as dinner last night at the Cheesecake Factory. Sweet corn tamale cakes. Delish and too rich to eat more than two. Sweet, salty, tangy, spicy and cool all at once.
We hit up the Cheesecake Factory while in Scottsdale, and we sampled the sweet corn tamale cakes. Oh my! What an interesting explosion of sweet, salty, sour and smooth flavors.
Another early dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, thank you American Express Rewards! This was the best thing of the night - Tex Mex Eggrolls with salsa and avocado cream. Lots of cilantro inside, which makes food an instant hit with us!
My dinner was the Navajo sandwich - grilled chicken, red onions, avocado slices, tomato and mayo on fry bread. An interesting combination with the lightly sweet fry bread. I would have liked the chicken to have more taste. This would be a fabulous sandwich with Cajun chicken. Also, half of this sandwich is more than enough for a meal.
Grilled cheese was a hit with our daughter. Lots of gooey cheddar.
Fresh fish tacos - which featured mahi mahi. I don't think my husband would have ordered these if he had known they would have tuna inside, although he said they tasted fine. Our daughter had a piece of cheesecake for dessert. We weren't even tempted because our tummies were so full, and because last weekend, we had cheesecake at the Carnegie Deli - the best cheesecake in the world! 
I tried the Santa Fe salad. My all-time favorite salad at the Cheesecake Factory is no longer on the menu in Boise, although it's still available in other towns (the seafood salad). This is my new favorite salad. Lots of cilantro and a Thai peanut dressing makes this delish.
The is the four-cheese chicken pasta my husband ordered. Very strong basil flavors. It was good, but not as good as my salad. My daughter had a piece of plain cheesecake....for dinner! The Cheesecake Factory serves ridiculous amounts of food. So, there are always leftovers.
