Everyone chases after happiness, not noticing that happiness is right at their heels.

The Cheesecake Factory




Few people have achieved in their lifetimes what the Overtons accomplished during theirs. With a great deal of courage and determination, Oscar and Evelyn Overton realized their dream - to own a successful business. 

Always known as an excellent cook, Evelyn created her Original Cheesecake recipe that everyone loved. By the late 1940's, she opened a small cheesecake shop in Detroit. In order to raise her two small children, David and Renee, Evelyn chose to put off her dream and gave up the shop. She moved her baking to a kitchen in her basement and continued to supply cakes to several of the best local restaurants. In 1971, with their children grown, Evelyn and Oscar, now in their early 50's, decided to move their cheesecake business to Los Angeles. With the last of their savings, they opened a 700 square foot store, "The Cheesecake Factory".

My first Cheesecake factory experience was amazing. My roommate and I decided instead of going out clubbing with the rest of the dreamers, we would grab a coffee and dessert at the cheesecake factory. YUM YUM YUM... im definitely going back there... you have way too many options, Amy's chocolate cheesecake was delicious!!! and the coffee MMGOOD  :)
