I haven't been to a CF in several years and never in AZ. Last night, my BF and I went to the one in the Camelback Corridor and we were both pleasantly surprised.
My memories of CFs from back East were tons of mediocre food and great desserts. This time, however, we had very nice appetizers--avocado eggroll, samosas, and beet and goat cheese salad. My main course, the spicy chicken salad, was tasty.
The appetizer portions are generous, the main course not so overwhelming and the dessert? Too stuffed to eat it so we took it home to have tonight! But how can it go wrong for dulce de leche cheesecake?
I would go back except that I know I will be tempted to try other restaurants in the area particularly the ones that aren't corporate-owned and have more interesting menus. That said, the few items we tried from CF's menu were A-OK. I'll probably take my son there for brunch sometime.
