Fan-Favorite ‘Real Housewives’ Star’s Date-Night Pick Is So Unexpected—And So Real originally appeared on Parade.
Even reality TV royalty needs a break from the spotlight—and when this fan-favorite ‘Real Housewives’ star goes out on a date with her husband, she skips the swanky hotspots and red-carpet treatment for something a little cozier and a lot more relatable.
In a recent appearance on the beloved ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast, Kathy Hilton (as in, Paris and Nicky’s mom) dished about her favorite place for date night, and fans can’t get enough of her refreshingly down-to-earth pick: The Cheesecake Factory. She and her husband go once a month like clockwork, and it’s not for the scene—it’s for the food.

So, what’s Kathy Hilton’s order? She’s a big fan of the omelet, meatloaf and Monte Cristo sandwich, especially during brunch hours. Her husband has a soft spot for the wings and a slice of cheesecake to finish it off. But the real star of the meal might just be the bread. “They have the best brown bread,” she gushed during the interview, prompting viewers to nod in agreement and possibly crave a basket of it immediately. I know I am.
And it’s not just a human affair—her dog is part of the tradition, too. The pup apparently enjoys sitting with the other guests, soaking in the atmosphere just like any regular diner.
It’s a simple, sweet routine that reminds fans why they fell in love with her in the first place. She’s glamorous, yes, but she’s also the kind of person who will wax poetic about meatloaf and brown bread with total sincerity—and that’s exactly what makes her so beloved.
Fans are flocking to the chain known for its massive menu and iconic brown bread now that it has the full stamp of approval from this ‘Real Housewives’ icon. Save me a seat.
