| - Christmas Eve and took my daughter out for lunch and some shopping at Crocker Park, ended up at Cheesecake Factory....No wait, but fairly crowded inside...When I visit any CF I always order the Thai Lettuce Wraps as a starter, basically it's chicken satay, with 8-10 pieces of bibb lettuce, accompanied with chopped cucumbers, shaved carrots, cilantro, Thai noodles and 3 sauces (all 3 are excellent) - Thai Chili Sauce, Peanut Sauce and a Tamarind Sauce, trust me when you construct that 1st wrap try 1 or all 3 on your creation - you won't be sorry.....Daughter and I enjoyed the wraps - they never disappoint....For our lunch I ordered a Fried Chicken sandwich on a Brioche Bun, with a side on Buffalo Sauce and Fries, my daughter order a Pasta Evelyn dish which is rigatoni pasta with pesto sauce, roasted red peppers, pine nuts, broccoli and shallots.....The sandwich came with lettuce and tomato and slice of pepper jack cheese and blue cheese dressing....definitely recommend it, big piece of chicken that was cooked perfectly accompanied by buffalo sauce and blue cheese (it's a winner)...My daughter's pasta looked good, she said it was too much for her so she boxed it up for later.....we both agreed that we would split a piece of cheesecake (duh), we order a lemon meringue cheesecake...presentation was pretty....cheesecake was a bit dry, but taste was good.....I like CF's, I usually get a good meal and walk away full and satisfied, the CF at Crocker Park fit the bill as my daughter and I enjoyed our Christmas Eve lunch....
