Remember this: the grilled salmon on the lunch menu at the Cheesecake Factory.
BOMB.
I remembered my mom-in-law mentioning it, so I ordered it the last time I was there, and it totally hit the spot.
The fish was cooked perfectly and lightly seasoned with herbs, salt and pepper. Simple, but delicious.
It also comes with mashed potatoes and broccoli, but I substituted the potatoes for white rice because fish plus rice equals one happy Karen. 🙂
You know a meal is good when the food comes out and everyone at the table immediately stops talking because they’re so busy chomping and scarfing it down, LOL! Seriously, you don’t mess with a Filipino girl getting down with some fish and rice. Best to just get out of the way until she’s done, for real.

Aaaah that looks so delicious, Karen! Gotta try it sometime! I can totally relate to being Filipino and loving me some rice+meat 🙂

Great post! I guess it’s actually very “pinoy” to not talk whilst eating, I mean, what’s the point of talking and blabbing when your yummy food is getting colder by the minute? hehe……
I miss Cheesecake Factory, I just do not like the fact that I think everyone thinks I go there for the junk…I mean, the cheesecake (which is obviously super yummy and equally fatty), they have great food (HUGEEE servings, goodness, how could people eat so much hehe) and it’s very carefree.
Yummy salmon pics! Thanks for the post!

You just posted my normal order (except I get the mashed potatoes. OMG, I LOVE the mashed potatoes.) that I actually had just last week! If I had the recipe for the mashed potatoes, I would so make those constantly though.
What’s your favorite slice of cheesecake there? My two faves are the smore’s and Oreo Dream ones.
