CF Phoenix, Boston and Redondo Beach recently partnered with Best Buddies International. They each hosted a day filled with cooking and connection that was nothing short of heartwarming! Each restaurants welcomed Best Buddies participants and their caregivers for a behind-the-scenes experience. The day kicked off with guided tours, where our guests got a glimpse into the magic of our kitchens. Then, our guest chefs stepped into action making pizza and tacos! Once the pizzas and tacos were ready, everyone gathered to enjoy their delicious creations while Best Buddies staff led engaging activities. As the day wrapped up, our restaurant teams took group photos, shared heartfelt goodbyes and sent everyone home with a sweet parting gift—a slice of cheesecake! Reflecting on his time with the Best Buddies group, GM Jon Dragone said, “It was such a touching event! I hope to provide opportunities for these individuals in the future. They were all so well engaged and asked so many great questions!” We're incredibly proud of our teams in Boston, Phoenix and Redondo Beach teams for creating such an unforgettable experience for our guests and creating special moments of inclusion and connection! #lifeatcheesecake #socheesecake
