Editorial Review for The Melting Pot – by Cindy Locke

In Short
Booths equipped with tabletop fondue pots are clustered together inside the intimate dining room. Start with a cheese fondue, including an assortment of breads, veggies and fruits for dipping. Entrees include lobster, center-cut filet, fish, chicken and vegetarian selections served with a variety of dipping sauces. For dessert, try the flaming turtle, a mix of chocolate and caramel flambéed tableside, served with nut-covered marshmallows, fresh fruit, pound cake, brownies and cheesecake.

When to Go

Cooking on forks takes time--something to keep in mind if you've got after-dinner plans. It's a great place for people just getting to know each other or who truly enjoy each other's company.

Wow, the ambiance is fantastic, very secluded tables, very dark and intimate; a great date place! The cheese fondue (served first as an appetizer) is the best part, food-wise; many choices, all de-lish, and best price for the quality. The main course is a little too much for many people, as you are served RAW meat and veggies. It's one thing to watch a professional cook chicken in front of you, but it's another to let people handle it themselves---ick, salmonell city! We got sweet fondue at the end, and it was nothing special...too sweet almost, but a great selection of dipping items. FANTASTIC wine selection! Melting Po is also in Columbia (near the mall) and Annapolis.

Pros: VERY romantic, classy, great wines

Cons: Served RAW MEAT, very expensive dinner/dessert

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
