Kathy Hilton and her husband Rick have revealed they have an unlikely weekly date night spot, saying they often head to a popular chain restaurant for a romantic dinner.
You’d have thought that the pair behind a multi-million-dollar hotel empire would be dining on lobster and foie gras every night, but it turns out they have a much simpler taste when it comes to treating themselves.
With Rick a descendant of American businessman Conrad Hilton, who founded the famous Hilton Hotels chain in 1919, the famous couple are reported to be worth a cool $350 million combined.
Their offspring – Paris, 42, Nicky, 40, Barron, 34, and Conrad, 29 – aren't exactly doing badly for themselves either, with daughter Paris’ perfume line alone bringing in billions.

But while Kathy and Rick are sitting on a rather tasty fortune, it turns out they’re far less boujie when it comes to date night.
Speaking to Page Six, she admitted they regularly head to a well-known restaurant chain that has multiple locations in Los Angeles, where they live – largely because it has her go-to dish, that she struggles to find elsewhere.
Kathy said: “We go [to the Cheesecake Factory] once a week.”

While the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star feels that ‘all their food is good’, she said there’s something in particular that Rick likes to order.
“He really likes the chicken [fettuccine Alfredo],” she said.
“And then also the one that you dip with the sauce.”
She prefers to go for the meatloaf, asking: “Where [else] can you get meatloaf?”

Kathy said she and Rick, who have been married since 1979, also have a big love for the chain’s buzzy atmosphere.
“It’s local, it’s right there and fresh and busy all the time,” she continued.
“Actually, you walk in there and there are people. We love that! We don’t want to sit in a restaurant with nobody in the room.”

In her mind, it’s the one place in LA that remains high-spirited, amidst a backdrop of a sleepier vibe she’s recently experienced, saying the ‘energy’s not the same’ and that she wants it to ‘get back into the groove’.
“The energy’s not the same,” Kathy said of Hollywood and its surrounding areas.
“[Last week], Rick and I, we went to the Cheesecake Factory. We left at 8:30 and the streets are dead.”
