A Spectrum

Ah, the good old U.S.A. the world's melting pot. However, my melting pot is of a different kind. It's the fabulous fondue restaurant called The Melting Pot. Tom and I and Eric and Corryn dined there on Saturday to celebrate new jobs, new house and the like. I have been wanting to go there forever. It was amazing. The fondue pot was right at our booth and they sometimes made the fondue in front of us and sometimes brought it out. We went all out and got their "Big Night Out." We had a Cheddar cheese fondue as an appetizer with bread, veggies, apples to dip. Then our entree was lobster, two kinds of steak, shrimp, chicken, pot stickers and veggies that we cooked in a Caribbean spiced fondue plus like five different sauces. Then, of course, the piece de resistance, the dessert fondue which was white and milk chocolate mixed with a streak of Carmel. It was heavenly. Plus they gave us strawberries, bananas, pineapple, pound cake, cheesecake, and these awesome Oreo and graham cracker covered marshmallows to dip in it. Oh, wow, it was all soooo good. We spent two hours just eating. ;) And then two hours letting it digest while we watched Ocean's Thirteen at the AMC 30. I swear where we were sitting was like twice as tall as our house. It was insane. What a great night out!!
