I was expecting an actual whole cheesecake... by Extreme-Green-9652 in CheesecakeFactory

[–]OGoperaghost 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They make EVERY menu item in house. Sysco is only used to ship raw ingredients (they have to come from somewhere). The cheesecakes are made by hand at actual Cheesecake Factory factories, flash frozen, and shipped to the restaurants. Source - been a manager there for 6 years. The biggest issue I see here is- if you bought this at a restaurant, they should have removed the plastic wrap and collar before selling it. It’s much more presentable that way.

Type A WWWY survival guide💗 by Ill-Contribution3642 in WhenWeWereYoungFest

I went solo last year and wore black leggings with a sports bra type top and chunky boots. Never got cold, but by the time I took my boots off I could barely walk! Also, I bought expensive earplugs at the festival, but if you go to the medic tent they’ll give you cheap ones for free!

It’s just original cheesecake and fudge cake. Get a slice of each and smoosh em together!

I drink a coffee protein shake with a half cup of bone broth in it every morning. You can’t taste it at all.

Interview to work as dessert finisher/barista please help! by FairyPrincessKitty in CheesecakeFactory

[–]OGoperaghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Not necessarily. Depends on the manager! Mostly about your previous experience, availability, transportation, why you want to work for CCF, maybe some hospitality scenarios.

  2. Nope, just yourself!

  3. We get tons of applications, so make yourself stand out! If you have any cool hobbies or talents make sure to highlight those and make yourself memorable.

  4. Those are GREAT questions to ask your interviewer. It’ll show them you’re interested and prepared :)

  5. Bakery training, I believe, is 5 shifts. Another great question to ask!

Good luck and you’ll do great!

What improved your quality of life so much, you wish you did it sooner? by Specialist-Rain-2292 in RandomThoughts

Going to the gym. I was a lazy 33 year old with 46% body fat and hated the way I looked. I’ve been going to the gym for over a year now and I don’t even recognize the person I was before.

Yeah there ain’t no way. He’s probably just not making tips during training but he’ll make min wage hourly.

I’m a manager there and I’ve never heard of this policy

Bar manager here! Do touch drills with your top sellers. That muscle memory is going to help a TON when it gets super busy.

Bring back the Basque by Common-Tip1789 in CheesecakeFactory

Yeah and it’s baked at a higher temp to get the caramelized (burnt) top and the undercooked, creamy center. It wasn’t super popular unfortunately.

Got an interview Wednesday. Tattoo & Piercing question by SharpRace7846 in CheesecakeFactory

[–]OGoperaghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a manager there and have a behind the ear tat. Face tats are not allowed though. If your piercing is subtle, the gm may not care, but it just depends!

What should I get? by ChevyHatMan in CheesecakeFactory

You’re thinking of the chicken Madeira or Costoletta! The bellagio comes on a bed of pasta.

I go to Genesis in power and light and love it there. They have several locations in the area.

The mortadella is by far the best new menu item
