Hillsdale Cheesecake Factory

The Cheesecake Factory, one of my favorite restaurants, until one opened up in Hillsdale Shopping Center.  The one in Palo Alto is a great restaurant, but the one in Hillsdale makes the Palo Alto location seem like the a 5 star restaurant when it is actually a 3 star restaurant.  After eating at a Bacon BBQ Burger, I threw up.  Don't get me started on their "cheesecake" pre-made and shipped overnight to the restaurant frozen in a plane.  If you read this, and live in the San Mateo area, I implore you to take the extra 15 to 20 minutes to drive to Palo Alto for good Cheesecake Factory meal.
