The Melting Pot

Wanda and I went to the The Melting Pot for Valentines day. It was extremely expensive, but I knew that getting into it. I though it would be nice to make up for Valentines days that I wasn’t so thoughtful for We had a good time – it was nice spending time together over a nice meal. A very nice place, indeed, but I don’t think it was our cup of tea.

For those who have never heard of it, The Melting Pot is a fondue restaurant. We got “The Big Night Out,” which consisted of about four courses – veggies and bread to dip in a tastey cheese fondue, salad, a main course of shrimp, fillet mignon, lobster, and stuffed ravioli, and desert of fruits and chocolates dipped in a white chocolate fondue. It was tastey for the most part, but not quite worth the price tag in our opinion. The lobster was terrible, although the rest of the main course was pretty good, though meager. The desert had too much bourbon in it and tasted like booze. A neat experience and a very nice place, but we’ll probably stick to our other local favorite, Good Company, in the future.
