Cheddar's Casual Cafe : 3 of 5
3.26.2005
8:10 PM | Link
While my parents were in town, I decided to try out a few new restaurants (I usually take them to places I've previously tested). I think I've driven by Cheddar's at least a hundred times, since it's right on 183, close to my Acura dealer and on the way to Lakeline Mall where I like to walk. This is definitely a fairly average Americana place, and not much stood out from the decor, except a cool rotating palm fan that fills the ceiling of the main room (we didn't get to sit under it, though). There's a lot on the menu, but the one thing everything has in common is the size - this place serves gigantic plates of food (which means you get gigantically full). I had a nice club sandwich, piled too high with meat, but it had this really yummy kind of mint peppercorn jelly on the bread. It was an unexpected taste, but I loved it (I still ate the bread and jelly when I was too full for the second half of the sandwich). My Mom had the veggie plate, and Dad had chicken strips, which were huge. The beer selection was pretty dismal, so I had a Mohito, which was pretty tasty (with sugar around the glass). I probably won't make a point of going back, but I'd tag along if someone else was going.
