REVIEW – Panda Express: Firecracker Chicken Breast

Firecracker Chicken Breast from Panda Express

Since we discovered that the firecracker chicken breast was free at Panda Express for Chinese New Year on Jan. 31, we decided to get some that day. The chicken was in a black bean sauce which was just a little spicy from the chilies, but unfortunately, it tasted a little bland. It just tasted like chicken sitting in some sauce with onion, chilies, and bell peppers. The chicken was also pretty dry... I ended up drinking a lot of water due to the dryness of the chicken rather than the heat from the chilies. The best part of the chicken dish was the bell peppers. I probably wouldn't get these again, so it was a good thing we got it for free!

REVIEW – The Cheesecake Factory: Linda’s Fudge Cake

Linda's Fudge Cake from Cheesecake Factory

After our dinner at Cheesecake Factory, we were pretty full, but we still decided to try a dessert. I don't like cheesecake, but I do love chocolate cake, so we decided to try Linda's Fudge Cake (that's what they call it on the menu -- we didn't take the cake away from someone named Linda).

The slice of chocolate fudge cake we got was huge! We shared it with a third person and still didn't even make a dent in the cake.

The cake was super rich and chocolate-y and very filling. My favorite part of the cake was the chocolate chips that were on the frosting. It was pretty good, but I think it ended up being too rich and filling for me.

REVIEW – The Cheesecake Factory: Fish and Chips

Fish N Chips from Cheesecake Factory

I went to the Cheesecake Factory for the first time, and I shared their fish and chips with my boyfriend. The platter was large, as most dishes at the Cheesecake factory seem to be pretty big.

The fish and chips were nice and crispy and weren't mushy at all, but the fish was a little bland. I mostly care about the breading when I have fish and chips, so it was still good to me. The coleslaw was the sweet kind which I like, but the sauce was a little heavy. The french fries on the side were also crisp, but they were nothing special and tasted a little bit stale.
