The Cheesecake Factory "The Choppin Blues" (2016) :25 (USA)

For The Cheesecake Factory's animated campaign "The Kitchen Speaks," the whisk comes in excited that the guests have had a smashing party in their eating establishment. But the Chopping Block is all "Do you know how tired I am?" Pfft, what a party pooper. That's what you get when you work at a place that serves 250 menu items fresh daily. Client: Cheesecake Factory:
