The Incredible Cheesecake Company &The Cravory

Stressed spelled backwards is desserts.

The Incredible Cheesecake Company (San Diego):













In San Diego, the are plenty of choices to go for desserts, you have Extraordinary Desserts, Heavenly Sent Desserts, The Cheesecake Factory, etc. If cheesecake is what you asked for, the above three do serve it; however, if The Cheesecake Factory might be you first choice because of its reputation in cheesecake in many cities, then you are mistaken.
 
Drinks
In San Diego, we have another fabulous place that also serves cheesecakes called The Incredible Cheesecake Company. The only way to live up to its name is to offer something incredible, which is why it serves only two things, coffee and cheesecakes. Some people may think cheesecakes are too sweet to eat by itself, which is why the owner decides to offer a variety of coffee to make sure you will have enough caffeine and sugar for the day. They have 34 drinks on their menu, only 4 aren't coffee.




Cheesecakes
Now, onto cheesecakes, they have 15 different kinds of cheesecakes on their daily menu, and an unknown amount of minimum of 20 flavors on special order. In my opinion, this place tops everywhere else that serve cheesecakes. The only downfall I can think of about this place is it doesn't serve anything else, like sandwiches or other "before dessert" food.

Price: $3.25 or $3.50 per slice, a pretty decent price tag for such extraordinary cheesecake.

Location: The neighborhood is kind of ghetto, and this place locates at a corner right after a bridge, which can be easily missed if you are traveling faster than 35mph. Parking is scarce because they are street parking, and most are already occupied by the local residents.

Within the restaurant: There are only 2 tables and 4 chairs in it, which means it is best to assume that you need to take your food home.

Address: 3161 Adams Ave

The Cravory (San Diego):
Ultimate Chocolate Chip
If you decided to have a snack in between work or study, The Cravory may be your answer. The Cravory serves only one thing, cookies. These are anything but ordinary, the dullest cookie they have is a chocolate chip cookie. They called it the Ultimate Chocolate Chip, but even that is exceptionally good because it has "ludicrously large always-hand-chopped chunks of Guittard Gourmet Bittersweet Chocolate. To bring it one step further, milk and semi-sweet chocolates are added to seal the deal."


The rest of the menu is a bit hard to describe, so I will leave it to you to explore.
 Price: It is a little pricey; $2 per piece exactly, but you can mix and match and get half a dozen for $11, and a full dozen for $20.
Location: La Jolla Farmers Market (every Sunday 9:00am to 1:00pm) Hillcrest Framers Market (every Sunday (9:00am to 2:00pm)
