I just popped my Cheese Fondue cherry with some friends the other day.  I’ve watched some shows on cheese fondue before and ever since I saw it, I just knew that I had to go try it out one day.  Days became weeks, weeks became days, days became months, months became years, and seriously.. years almost became decades.

Well, I was chatting with some buddies the other week and found out one of them had a fondue pot!  Quickly I jumped on that opportunity and set up a fondue night!  I absolutely love sitting with a bunch of friends, make something and just chat the night away.  Way more interesting and intimate instead of going out drinking, or even dining at a restaurant.  Sometimes it’s just nice to have something low key.  In our case, when we were eating, we had the original Super Mario Kart on the SNES playing repeatedly in the background…  where are you going to find that??

However, I digress.  May I add that I had absolutely NO idea what I was doing except that I had to go find some cheese and melt it?  It turns out the process is a little more complex than I thought.  I got signed up for the task to do research and do this as I was the resident foodie of the group.  All of us had only done some sort of chocolate fondue before (and shabu shabu and chinese hot pot as well I guess). » More: How To and Ideas for a Dinner Party: Cheese Fondue
