Cheesecake Factory/Remodel Day Two and Three

Hey, everyone. So today was day three of the Kitchen remodel, and it's been going pretty well. Overall day one was the most exciting and busy, but days two and three were pretty good too. 

Day Two:

Day Two was alllllll about flooring. They ripped up the old floor in the Kitchen, and in all three bathrooms (we are getting them re-done too!). I am very excited to see the yucky plain white tile going adios! 


The first strip of tile coming up. Cute little machine. 


After a little more of the tile is coming up.


After all of the floor is up. Goodbye, nasty!

Day Three:


Pictures in all the spots where the appliances go. Here is the picture of our future refrigerator. They even had a picture for the faucet on the sink! Super cute.


Pictured above is the new frame work for the cabinets. It's so nice that it's real sturdy wood. 

That is all that's been happening these last two days. Until Monday all that is going to be done is frame work and some shelf-fixing in the kitchen and bathrooms. 

One thing about remodeling a kitchen is that it is not easy to cook anything. We do still have our refrigerator which is good, and soon we also plan on making a little "kitchen" with a mini griddle, our fridge, and a pizza maker. Until that's done though, we have been eating out a lot.

The meal starts off with a sourdough bread roll, plus a delicious brown roll with oats that is not shown because it was eaten so fast!


I ordered the "Santa Fe Salad". It has grilled lime chicken, cheese, corn, black beans, tomatoes, and cilantro. I really like it. It's not a sissy salad, it is hearty and filled with delicious tastes, and textures. 


On the side, the dressing for the salad. The brown is peanut, and the green is cilantro. Delicious mixed together!


I also got the chips on the side so that they wouldn't get soggy when I brought some of the salad home. 


My mom and I also shared a plate of Chicken Potstickers which were really delicious, though the chicken fell out after only one bite!

Overall, 3 stars. I think I'll go eat my left over salad now!

Until next time folks, best wishes and dishes.
