Cheesecake is going zoological! Lehigh Valley recently volunteered at the zoo where they painted observation decks in the zebra and ostrich exhibit and the duck and goose pond exhibit. This was the team's first GiveBack event and what a way to start! Thank you to the team at Lehigh Valley for making a difference. #PridePassionPurpose #soCheesecake

Our annual Commitment to Excellence Award is given to 12 awe-inspiring individuals - one from each of our restaurant workgroups. Each winner brings so much Pride, Passion & Purpose to our restaurants that we truly can't imagine being as successful without them. Meet Yara, the Commitment To Excellence Award winner for the Front of House Manager work group! The two words most used to describe Yara are gratitude and kindness. “Her gratitude is so genuine that when she’s thanking a staff member, I feel compelled to do the same, even if I don’t know the reason she’s thanking them,” said GM Slade Neeley. As a testament to her reputation for kindness, Yara has been able to convince an electrician to come out and fix a dishwasher on the 4th of July – they knew that the help and kindness would be paid back to them. Yara is always bringing out the best in others, both staff and guests. She can’t help but attract positivity and has a way of making people feel both confident and comfortable. When presented with a challenge her response is, “Piece of cake, a cheesecake,” and we can’t think of a better way to approach work and life!
