Join the fun and celebrate National Cheesecake Day on Wednesday at the Cheesecake Factory at Fashion Island or Irvine Spectrum Center. The Cheesecake Factory will offer slices of cheesecake for $1.50, the same price as when the first location opened in 1978. One slice per guest, dine-in only. In addition, the Cheesecake Factory will debut a limited-edition 30th anniversary chocolate cake cheesecake. Cheesecake Factory officials said that 25 cents from the sale of each slice will benefit the America's Second Harvest, a national hunger-relief organization.
