just save up! if you can afford $10/week, you can do it. or $5/week even. it's so pricey that we're only planning to go again for major occasions, like during christmas break, spring break, end of marking period, etc., but it's not unreasonable at all if you get a bunch of good friends together and go all out.

as far as i know, fondue bread is supposed to be a little stale, otherwise it gets too soggy.

we do fondue for christmas eve every year. Sooooooo yum.

i know it's supposed to be slightly stale, but it was just a little bit TOO stale, if you know what i mean. like, there's stale and you'd still make a sandwich out of it, then there's stale where it's kinda squeaking on your teeth. it was the second one. and now that i think of it, the rye was perfect; it was just the white bread that was too stale.

this place near my parents' house does a wonderful cheese fondue which i used to order very often, and their (white) bread is the standard by which i was judging THIS bread, so maybe i'm biased.

did i say "bread" enough just then?

ew, yeah, squeaky bread isn't good.

i think i might hit up the melting pot for my birthday. between the fact that i'm starving (at this very moment) and everyone around me has been speaking fondue lately, your breakdown of dinner just sounds too yummy to pass up. i've been there once but it was probably 10 or so years ago...time to hit up the pittsburgh melting pot!

The melting pot is great! It's retardedly expensive, but it's always enjoyable.

Also, most waiters will make you whatever chocolate concoction you please, or they'll invent something for you.

True story: I went to The Melting Pot at least once a month for a year, only to finally realize why it was called The Melting Pot.

American television is a reality TV fad where EVERYTHING has to be dramatic. Fuck that noise, is what I say.

yeah, the dark choco with hazelnut was what we had created for us, but it just wasn't enough hazelnut. i was totally okay with it though.

let's not even get started on american reality tv.

With the cheese, we usually go for the cheddar blend, and as ghetto as it sounds, you can request tortilla chips. It's the only cheese dip that I'll eat. So good.
