Cheesecake Factory Review

We have a tradition that when we have to go to Indianapolis for different events, we have to eat at the Cheescake Factory. Many people tend to think that this wonderful eatery is only for dessert, but they are sooooo terribly wrong. The menu is gigantic. There is everything from Asian-Fusion to Salisbury Steak. The portions are beyond big, and the taste is ridiculous. We absolutely love it! This time we had the: 

Classic French Bread and Pumpernickel Bread
*This bread is to die for. It is so yummy. I have always been a white bread kind of girl until the pumpernickel really changed me. The subtle sweetness totally makes the bread!


Spicy Ahi Tempura Roll 
Fresh Raw Ahi Tuna with Green Onion, Spicy Soy Sauce, Ginger and Garlic.
Wrapped in Nori and Flash Fried Tempura Style.
 
*I had to have a sushi fix and this did just the right thing.
The sauce was amazing and even the garnish was devoured. :)

Shrimp Scampi and Chicken Madeira
Shrimp is sautéed with garlic, white wine, fresh basil & tomato. Served with mashed potatoes; sautéed chicken breast topped with fresh asparagus & melted mozzarella cheese - covered with fresh mushroom Madeira Sauce.
*Fantastic combo deal with 2 wonderful dishes!

 Buffalo Blasts®
Chicken Breast, Cheese and Our Spicy Buffalo Sauce all Stuffed in a Spiced Wrapper and Fried until Crisp. Served with Celery Sticks and Blue Cheese Dressing.
 *Huge servings...big on taste!
