CHEESECAKE FACTORY - West Hartford
http://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/

You don’t really have to order cheesecake for dessert here; there are other offerings, like lemoncello cream torte. But, c’mon, it’s the Cheesecake Factory! You can get a sugar high just from reading the cheesecake selections: white chocolate caramel macadamia nut cheesecake, vanilla bean cheesecake and Craig’s crazy carrot cake cheesecake. Oh, and they serve food, too.
