I'm a little late on posting the V-Day ventures, but so it goes. Corey and I went to one of my favorite restaurants ever, The Melting Pot, where we ordered the four-course meal of cheese fondue, salad, entree, and a dessert fondue. We got there an hour before our reservation in hopes of getting seated early. It didn't happen, but I got to enjoy a big ole glass of wine which is always nice! It also gave me time to experiment using my camera on manual... Which became quite a task in the dark atmosphere.
This photo looks really awful, but there was a wine room with vases full of flowers, if you chose to purchase them for your table. I really need practice!
For our dessert fondue, we chose the Flaming Turtle which is a combo of milk chocolate, caramel, and candied pecans. It was even flambeed at our table!
By the time we were finished eating, I had taken the belt off my dress and it hurt to laugh. I'm pretty sure his pants were unbuttoned, and I don't blame him because I was dying to take my tights off on the ride home! The price we pay for such a good meal, I guess?
He also got me this Morrissey print from Parlor Tattoo Prints on Etsy!
I absolutely love it!
I absolutely love it!
I think this year was the first time I've had a proper Valentine's Day.
The holiday itself isn't really important to me, but I like any excuse
to get dressed up, eat a nice dinner, and show my love for someone!I hope you all had an equally awesome day as well! <3
I LOVE the Melting Pot!! Hubs and I used to go there for every anniversary! Might have to start that tradition back up when we get back to the states!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great thing to look forward to every year! It may be pretty expensive, but so worth it! :)
DeleteThat dessert looks delicious. Sounds like a great meal when you can barely move!
ReplyDeleteThe dessert is the best part!

Haha! The dessert is a lot less expensive than the rest of the meal, and definitely my favorite part! Until just now, I had NO IDEA there were so many locations.
DeleteI have never been to the melting pot. People back home ALWAYS talk about it, but I'm so cheap I've never been haha.
