    I'm glad Keith is doing this over 3 days, because if he tried to do it all in one day he was gonna die. Cheesecake Factory has sooooo many items on its menu. :P

    Edit: After watching the video, I don't think 3 days is going to be enough. That's the most food drunk I've seen Keith, and that was only day 1! :P

    Currently watching part 3 as I type this. I do enjoy a good food drink Keith. As a Canadian, I don't make it to Cheesecake Factory very often but it does hold a special place in my heart as being delicious and a perfect example of the over the top American culture I know and love.

      Also Canadian, so ditto. I've only been to Cheesecake Factory a handful of times, mostly while I was living in the US, but I've also been to the Yorkdale mall location in Toronto a few times over the years too (which is the only Canadian location, IIRC).

        Yeah the eat the menu videos are making me want to make the trek to Yorkdale as much as I hate going to that mall as I haven't had Cheesecake Factory in years. Also, hello fellow Canadian!

    Thanks for sharing. I’ve never seen this guys videos before but I like how he’s generally positive and not overly critical. It’d be easy to bash on Cheesecake Factory for cheap points.

      What's wild is after watching I have a lot more respect for them. The fact they actually do make their food fresh (numerous employees confirmed too) except for the cheesecakes coming in frozen which makes sense and doesn't bother me. And the fact that so much of the giant menu is actually good. I'd definitely tossed them into a general "Applebee's" ish category with a level of derision and I'm gonna give them a fresh shot

    Wow, so as a Canadian this is a really good dive into American chain-restaurant food. I've always heard that American food portion sizes are bigger than ours, but this just takes the (cheese) cake. I'm blown away that the "skinnylicious™" salads are still 1500+ calorie meals that look like they weigh a kilogram or more.

    I'm honestly really surprised that a chain restaurant with 200+ items on their menu manages to make everything fresh and mostly from scratch. That's very impressive, especially for one that operates out of malls. I can't imagine the number of ingredients they need to keep fresh in order to make all these menu items. The food waste must be incredible... On that note, I really hope this youtube channel does something with the leftover food they eat a bite of since they're probably throwing out a hundred pounds and probably thousands of dollars worth of food to make these videos.

      Most episodes of Eat the Menu they have made a pretty big point about how they make serious efforts to minimize the food waste, and they even used to have follow-up videos exclusive to their Patreon that showed all the food getting eaten by the "leftover crew" and the "food babies" (Alex & YB). They haven't done any more of those leftover crew / food babies videos ever since the Ned and Alex infidelity scandal though. :(
