Epicurious Eats: Celebration at the Melting Pot

So we (Jen, me, and Jen's med school friends - Ann, Priya, and Gabe) went to the Melting Pot in Old Town Pasadena for a celebration of Jen's matching into Ophthalmology:

I forgot to take photos of the main dishes, but I don't really mind...the dessert was the best part by far! =) So here is a photo of the various dipping items - fruits and cakes.

Mmm, we ordered two chocolate fondues - the first: a big pot of chocolate smores - melted milk chocolate topped with marshmellow cream and graham crackers. It doesn't get better than that!

Our second chocolate fondue: the "Cookies n' Cream Marshmallow Dream" - dark melted chocolate with marshmallow cream and crushed oreo cookies on top. The newly minted Dr. Hung's favorite!

Hi all -

For all of you that are reading this blog, feel free to make comments, and I will try to respond to it as timely as I am able. Please feel free to say whatever you want...because we all can, living here in the United States (yay First Amendment!). I do have comment moderation on (meaning I approve comments before they are posted) - not to screen comments out (even the hateful ones) - but mostly so I can screen out some of the spam that gets sent out of the internet (boo spam bots!).

I will try to be respectful as I can about everyone's opinions in my reply comments, but please do the same for me as well!

My Philosophy about food...

For me, food (and the taste of food) is very individual to each person. You may like some things which I don't like, and I may like other foods, and vice versa. I feel that everyone's culinary palate develops just a little bit differently based on their previous food experiences in their life, which colors what they believe tastes good and taste bad to them. Therefore, there really isn't any food dish which everyone in this world will find "good," despite some people's needs to declare it so. Since food is a very personal individualized experience for each person, I try to refrain from making too many statements like a food critic in this blog. I do try to keep some perspective though, and compare the quality and taste of food at any given restaurant to other restaurants of the same caliber and type. But, obviously, this site represents what I like/and may not like so much, but what I say is: if you might disagree, go and try it for yourself! =) If you are going to eat three square meals a day, you might as well enjoy it, right?

P.S. If you want to know more about why I blog about food and about this blog itself, please read the intro. Thanks!
