So tonight I had my first experience at The Melting Pot, a fondu eating experience. Now I LOOOOOOVE food! And for the most part, I like trying new foods. This was also my first time where eating a 4 course meal took 2 1/2 hours!
First course: cheese! A staple in the diary category ... Two kinds with "secret" ingredients!
Second course: your basic salad ... And no, there was no dipping.
Third course: chicken and filet ... Dipped and cooked in two kinds of cooking broth. Not to mention the broccoli & potatoes.
Fourth course ... And most defiantly my favorite! Was the dessert: cookies and cream dipping sauce, with dark chocolate and marshmallow cream ... Dippers: you name it! Fruit, brownies, etc.
My observations:
1. If you don't like sharing your food, don't go here! It's not about the dipping part, it's about wanting all the dessert and not wanting to share!
2. Not a good place for a first date. No, I didn't ... the reason? You can't escape quickly if your date isn't going well!
3. Wear pants that have a stretchy waistband, you'll need it.
4. Be prepared, at some point, to literally hit the wall and want to sleep. As I write this, I am already in bed.
5. Go with people you really like because you will be there for a long time and will have to talk at some point. You can only stare across the table in silence for so long!
Good experience ... With good friends ... Good night
