SOOOO for our anniversary my absolutely favorite place to go is the melting pot. Two reasons why. One the food is delicious! Two it can take hours start to finish for dinner…THATS HOURS I GET OF UNDIVIDED ATTENTION! YAY!

Disappointed Baker says:
This recipe just doesn’t work. I followed the directions exactly but it was still a disaster. As soon as I added the slurry to the chocolate the whole thing seized up into a hard crumbly mess. Stick the Melting Pot recipes that use caramel sauce because Banana Foster fondue is delicious.
