| - The primary draw for us was to see the complimentary show that occurs on the top of every hour in front of the Cheesecake Factory in a large rotunda space. In the center there are marble columns that descend at the beginning of the show. In their place, an enthroned king rises up in the middle and on either side are his son and daughter who are vying to be the sole heir to his throne. The audience is asked to decide their fate, and the battle it out. On our visit, neither child won, but in the course of the decision there was plenty of fire, fake lightning, and loud furious noise. It was very entertaining, and the heat from the fire could be felt at a decent distance.
Beyond the show though, there are plenty of high end shops to occupy oneself. It is a wonderful place to pick up a new Rolex, buy an $89,000 John Hancock autograph, pick up some Tiffany blue boxes for the ladies in your life, and so forth. In reality, these shops see more visitors than customers, but they are diverse and interesting enough that you will be tempted to buy something at some point. Highly recommend.
