HEY! It ain't a Cheesecake Factory, but it's awfully close!
We'll need to find a new forum meme, then... ;-)
I noticed the "Cheesecake Bistro" sign over the weekend as well, but I couldn't find anything about it online thru Google.
Threadjack - Is the Brunch House [[former Breakfast House on Woodward) open yet? I thought it was supposed to be early August.
lol! Close enough for 50% fantasyland status becoming reality right?Quote:

Me too. Also looking for news of the Brunch Place, too... I really miss the Breakfast House...
This Cheesecake Bistro chain is the closest imitator to the Cheesecake Factory [[except maybe the CCF's own Grand Lux Cafe):

I’ve been to the Copeland’s in Dallas – the food was very good. I didn’t realize they had locations called ‘Cheesecake Bistros’. If/when they open, I will be there!
Can't find any substantive announcement about this via Google or the bistro's website... has anyone checked things out? Any photos?
The sign is posted in the window of the building which housed Sweet Georgia Brown. I don't know why Model D Detroit or Crains hadn't written anything on it yet. You will see the sign when you walk up Monroe St in greektown. I guess Detroit could not get the "Cheesecake Factory to open a restaurant in the city.Quote:

Sure is! I think it's actually pretty cool that we'd get the Cheesecake Bistro. The CF is all over the place now; the CB seems to have great reviews and they're only in the South thus far. It's a win-win.Quote:

Is everybody jumping to conclusions?
Is the place opening L's Cheesecake Bistro? and not Copeland's Cheesecake Bistro?
Either way another business in an empty storefront is always good news.
We don't need a cheesecake factory, just a Cheesacke Bistro.

Maybe a lawsuit from Copeland's Cheesecake Bistro to make them change their name?Quote:

The words, " Upscale " and LaVan go together like salt and open wound, so expect steamtable troughs of Catfish and creamed spinach. Wonder if they'll take EBT cards?
One of my favorite quotes this year!

I've never been to Copeland's Cheesecake Bistro. Do they have ridiculous waiting time to be seated like CCF?
