Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, Average Americans, Ate at Cheesecake Factory Twice in a Row
Kim Kardashian going to—or even just talking about—chain restaurants is one of my favorite pop-culture subcategories. What? You didn’t realize this was a thing? Well, you’ve been missing out, my friend. I’ll always remember when she opened up about her Chipotle order a few years back, plainly saying, “I always get a Diet Coke from the fountain with LOTS of ice. If they don’t put enough ice in it, I die.” Or when she confirmed that she “ALWAYS” orders a side of small fries at McDonald’s. Always. She probably “dies” if that also doesn’t happen.
So you can imagine my pure elation when news came out today (August 28) that Kardashian, Kanye West, and their children dined at the Cheesecake Factory two times in a row while visiting Dayton, Ohio over the weekend. (They were there for West’s Sunday Services.) According to People magazine, the famous family had several dishes while eating at the popular chain, including a slice of its famous Strawberry Cheesecake.
A fan named Kayla snapped photos of the Kardashian-Wests getting their cheesecake on, and they’re as iconic as you’d expect. Check them out for yourself, below.
I’m not sure what piece of information is more delicious: the fact that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West ate at Cheesecake Factory at all, or the fact they went twice. Have you ever been to Cheesecake Factory? It’s incredible, yes, but so, so filling. It’s the type of place even the most devoted chain restaurant-goers can only handle eating at once in a while. So to go there back-to-back is some serious dedication to cheesecake.
To be honest, I can absolutely picture a world where Kardashian had never heard of Cheesecake Factory until she ate there in Ohio—and then became so infatuated with it, she had to go again immediately. “Babe, have you ever heard of this place called Cheesecake Factory?” Kim asked Kanye, in my imagination. “They, like, sell pasta and tacos and, like, these giant pieces of cheesecake. I’m dying.”
I can’t wait to see how Keeping Up With the Kardashians documents this culinary experience.
