As my husband and I ran errands around the house, the subject of dinner came up, since we love food way to much, we are tried of all the same old places. He wanted a new place and I am picky. (I know, I am writing a food blog and I am a picky eater, but my husband and I have a rule: try everything once) So we are driving around and he said the melting pot. I am hesitated, I have had it before but he has not. I pulled up to the curb and had him look at the menu. He wanted to try it, so we went in.
The last time I had it was at least 7 years ago with my brother and friends. I say this because the menu is a very confusing, they had to order for me then and this time the waitress had to go over it twice! Hubby and I finally figured out what we wanted to eat after several minutes and started to people watch.
The first course came, the cheese course, to my dismay. I don’t like cheese! I really don’t cheese. I will give you that cheese does make some things taste better, but really as the main part of the dish, it is awful. The hubby could take it or leave it. He wants to forgo it the next time but I think he should give it one more chance.
The next course is the salad. The hubby got a garden with ranch, he loved it. I got the California salad; mine was drowning in dressing but very good.
Then came the meat; everything was really tasty. The veggies taste like they have been steamed in beef stock just right. The dipping sauces have that perfect little something for each meat and veggie. They take a little bit of time but it is worth the waiting (cooking).
At last the Chocolate!!!
“Hello, my name is Cooking Monster and I am a sweet-ohlic.”
Since it was my hubby’s first time, he picked the happy ending!
He picked Plain old White Chocolate!
I was a little disappointed BUT he had never been and he said that next time we will pick something with a little more to it.
Oh my god, even as just white chocolate, it tasted SOOOOO good!
The Melting pot is a little bit pricy, but it is an experience I think everyone should try once. I don’t care if you did it at home or you went to one of those parties, you should go to one of restaurant.
