Ok, I learned that CF doesn't serve Dr. Pepper. Well, they don't serve
fettuccine alfredo on the side either! At least the waitress was nice
when she said, "We don't serve it like that." I thought it was a bit
unusual but not enough to spoil the meal. I'll just have to get it at
another restaurant that does serve it on the side. I can hardly wait
to see what I can't order the next time!

How about you try ordering what's on the menu, and see if that makes a
difference?

Certainly the easiest way to go with the boring chain places where
customer service is often marginal. At higher end restaurants they make
a lot more effort to accommodate special requests.

Yep, that's the way it is with those big chain places. You get it the way
they say you get it and if you don't like it, tough you know what. They
just want you to wolf down your food and get the hell out of the place
because there are more goobers waiting for your table. When a restaurant
brings you your food and the check at the same time, they simply don't give
a damn about your "dining experience." Better to go to a burger joint or a
diner instead. You're lucky they even put Splenda on the table for you.

What a bunch of assholes. I bet they don't have liver and onions or blood
sausage either. Tell them you want a side of head cheese. Order borscht
for your soup and walk out if they don't have it. Show them how bad they
really are.

As for the Dr. Pepper. tell them it is OK to substitute Mr. Pibb or
Cheerwine. Better yet, demand Lime Ricky. Any decent restaurant should
have it.

Show'em who's boss. Keep going there until they meet your demands and have
everything you want on the menu.

I'm afraid if I did I wouldn't be able to eat in most restaurants ever

I have spent some time in commercial kitchens however and I know I'm

I would hope that you would agree that the waitstaff at any restaurant
should be sufficiently competent to offer a similar alternate that the
restaurant does have such as Dr. P vs. Mr. P. or Pepsi vs. Coke, without
prompting from the patron.

Then you'll also be familiar with who in the commercial kitchen
has that training and how the information is made available.

Expecting a cook in a chain restaurant to be able to pass HACCP
training is nothing more than wishful thinking. I would bet that
even the unit manager would be hard-pressed to be current on any
training not mandated by Corporate.

Although it's unlikely, maybe they actually make fettucine alfredo the
CORRECT way, which means "from scratch", not using sauce from a jar. While
this is not a terribly involved process, it's certainly not worth their time
to make a small amount as a side dish.

Does this place have lots of pictures on the menu, like Denny's?

Maybe the troll can get it all out at once and list every item
Cheesecake Factory doesn't have on their menu and be done
with it. Or, maybe it can just go to a restaurant that features what
it's looking for instead of Cheesecake Factory.

I like Cheesecake Factory. They have a varied menu, the service is

Why on earth do you continue to return to that place? Do you enjoy
posting your gripes on usenet *that* much? Get a grip, get a life and
move on to another chain restaurant. Unlike most rodents, you don't
seem to learn from your mistakes.

WTF is your problem? The Cheesecake Factory obviously doesn't serve
everything to your nit picky liking so why don't you just eat somewhere else
and quit whining about it here? (Is school out? I thought the holidays

I like CF, too. But you don't know how they serve their food unless
you ask, right? When you go to a restaurant, you eventually find out
their rules for serving food and drinks. I disklike Mr. Pibb.

I just went to my first Cheesecake factory lunch a couple of weeks ago
and we enjoyed it enough to return the next day. The service was very,
very good even considering that the place was packed. The dessert we had
and I crave again even now was the limoncello torte. Not overly sweet
and reminded me very much of the bakery treats we used to get in Europe.
Sure it is a chain....but one I'll be going back to when I can. They're
doing so many things right there.

I went back, too. I had the crispy spicy beef (?) ... I really enjoyed
that. No complaints about the service, either, and I also like the
iced green tea. I think it's odd that they don't have regular iced tea,
but life goes on.

It's a chain, and it's possible that the sauce comes out of a plastic bag
which they microwave, or drop into boiling water. To make a side dish,
they'd have to waste a half serving just for you, if it's not that popular a
dish.

Parden me, Mr. Sqwertz, but they DO serve FETTUCINI WITH CHICKEN in a
cream sauce. Any kitchen should easily be able to make fettucinni
alfredo.

I'm starting to think of you as an arrogant, uncompassionate, spoiled,
foul-mouthed individual that enjoys slandering others.

Oh. Now you're saying a chain restaurant should veer from its corporate
mandated formula for portion control.

How old are you?

So make it in your own friggin kitchen. Stop going to The Cheesecake
Factory and then bitching about how they won't do things your way. Good
lord, is this such a difficult concept?????

Reality: We don't know if you are male or female, so for now, you are an
"it". You could change that in your next response, if you can stop frothing
at the mouth for a moment.

Just one bad experience isn't fair to make a judgement call. I didn't
order anything that wasn't already on the menu. Besides, I do like to
eat of CF (so far). You don't know how a place will serve their food
unless you ask, right? We've been able to order food items that wasn't
listed on the menu at other restaurants. And I'm not a rodent, you,
name caller, you.
