Fondue




C and I went to a Fondue place on the plaza today.  Neither one of us had ever been before, so it was a new experience. It was good, but a little pricey.  We had a cheese fondue & then a dessert fondue.  The cheese consisted of Fontina and Butterkase cheese and a small amount of Bleu Cheese.  They started with some white wine, a little sherry, added the shredded cheese gradually, then stirred in some sauteed scallions.  It was served with bread cubes (pumpernickel, rye and french), vegetables (carrots, broccoli and cauliflower) and apple chunks.  We chose the Ying-Yang chocolate dessert fondue, a combination of half white, half dark chocolate.  It was served with strawberries, bananas, marshmallows, brownie chunks, pound cake, cheese cake and rice krispie treats. The chocolate fondue was delicious, but how can you go wrong with anything dipped in chocolate?  I had it with a nice glass of pinot grigio that went perfectly with the cheese and chocolate.
