TRANSCRIPT
History• Evelyn created a cheesecake
recipe that everyone loved. So in the late 1940’s she opened a business in Detroit with his husband Oscar. In order to raise their two children Renee and David, Evelyn gave up her shop. She moved her baking to a kitchen in the basement and continued to supply cakes to the best local restaurants
• When their children grew up and they were in their 50’s they putted their bakery in Los Angeles with their last money, they called it The Cheesecake Factory. Those days were very difficult, working 18-hours a day. And it continued to grow then, David found one in Beverly Hills which made it more famous.
