What a Great Meal
- 9:26 am - Jason
searchWent to The Melting Pot last night for dinner with Becky. Not really a special occasion or anything. She had gotten a gift card as rewards points from AMEX and I had always wanted to try it out. Talk about a ton of food and it also being very different from what you might normally eat! See, it's a 4 course fondue restaurant. So we started off with a cheddar cheese and beer fondue with breads, apples, celery, and carrots. Very tasty. Next came the salad. We chose the mushroom salad. It was basic but the mushrooms were incredibly fresh and the house italian dressing was excellent. The main course was probably my favorite. They heat up a coq au vin mixture in the fondue boiler bottom and then you cook your individual bites of meat in it yourself. We had a great selection of chicken, new york strip steak, filet mignon, beef teryiaki, shrimp, and potstickers. There was also potatoes, squash, and broccoli to go into the pot as well. They had a variety of dipping sauces to go along with all of the other choices on the table. Finally came the dessert, which we decided would be the smores mixture. It was milk chocolate with melted marshmellow creme and grahamcracker cumbs mixed in. To dip, we had a selection of pineapple, bananas, strawberries, brownies, and cake.
I was so full at the end that I couldn't eat another bite even though I didn't want to stop. I will definately be visiting that place again!
