Fondue Flop

Ok, so there is a restaurant near us called The Melting Pot. It is a fondue restaurant where you can get different cheese fondues, salads, main courses with fondue and then the wonderful chocolate fondue dessert! I have always wanted to go here, and since Michael will be home for my birthday I suggested we go there! I also read it was a romantic place, and I am always up for that - especially when I haven't seen him in 5 months.

So I looked it up online and it is very expensive! Now let me preface this by saying that when we go out we normally spend around $30, a stretch would be $40. The Melting Pot, for two people would cost around $100 including tip. That is very expensive for us, so I told Michael nevermind, I would much rather go to a place where I knew I would get a good meal for my money.

After crossing off that idea, I still really wanted fondue. So I attempted to make my own using a recipe I found online. Let's just say it didn't turn out that way I anticipated. If you have any fondue restaurants that are fabulous send them to me so I can try again!
