Do You Fondue?

avatar

The idea of Fondue seemed odd to me before I tried it. I understood the premise of cheese, melted in a pot, but to have that be the sole focus of dinner was a foreign concept to me. For my birthday, my wife and went to The Melting Pot. She had gone once years ago, but I had never been.

(Created with Bing)

I selected the cheese without issue, but I was thrown off by the fact there was a meat course with a broth. I went with various cuts of steak and asked for a suggestion on the broth to use, since I was clueless. I ended up picking the Coq Au Vin at the server's suggestion, then we chose the Flaming Turtle for dessert.

The cheese was fantastic! The addition of Worstercire sauce really brought out the flavor of the Wisconsin cheddar. I especially liked the addition of the Sam Addams Boston Lager. The veggies weren't my forte, but you can't go wrong with bread dipped in cheese.

The main course started to make a lot more sense when I saw it placed in front of me. I was given extra skewers, the broth was brought to a boil on the table, and a plate of small cuts of pre-seasoned steak were set in front of me. A quick scan of the QR code on the menu to my right brought up their website and a cooking timer for each different cut of meat. Genius! I got to work quickly. My favorite combination was the Teriyaki steak dipped in a mild gorgonzola Tatziki sauce. Creamy, tangy, sweet and salty, all in one bite!

The dessert was fantastic! You can't go wrong with anything dipped in chocolate, but they got very creative! There were rice krispy squares, fruit, brownies and more! My favorites, aside from the brownie bites, were the waffle bites and Oreo-coated marshmallows! It was rich, creamy, and great way to end a very unique dining experience. It's not cheap, but I'd certainly do it again for a special occasion!

Wow, this looks like such a fun experience! I’ve never tried fondue in a restaurant, but the way you described it makes me want to try it too. 😅 The cheese and the Flaming Turtle dessert sound sooo good! And cooking the steak in the broth yourself seems really cool..

Now I’m craving melted cheese and chocolate haha. Glad you enjoyed your birthday dinner looks totally worth it for a special occasion!!

It's a lot of fun, and very tasty! It does take longer than a normal dinner, so make sure you leave yourself plenty of time for it

They always use funny cheese for fondue and then they add the wine and that makes it taste even funnier. If they just used like queso, I think I wouldn't mind it as much. Otherwise, I am probably not a very big fan of fondue.

I can understand not liking it if they add an odd cheese. Yeah, wine in cheese is not something I enjoy, but beer cheese is fantastic!

I like your thinking! I will never turn down queso! 😁

Melting Pot!!!! We used to have one of those in Seattle but it closed… gosh I am not sure when. (A quick internet search tells me there is still one in a nearby city though. 😃)

Fondue is fun. A friend of mine used to host a Christmas time Fondue party. The meat course did freak me out a little, but I like how your dinner spot provided cooking time instructions. Smart move.

The question is… will you fondue again? 🧀 🫕

Yeah, I found out a lot of locations closed, which is sad. 🙁

Yeah, I was iffy about the meat course until I saw they provided a timer to make sure it's not undercooked.

I would absolutely go back, although it would likely be for another birthday, anniversary, etc., since it's not exactly cheap. 😆
