Melt a hole in your wallet.
If you have never been to the Melting Pot then be aware that it's a "cook yourself" style restaurant. Meaning there is an electric hotplate embedded in your table, akin to most Korean BBQ style restaurants. How can anyone go wrong with melted cheese? Here's how, charge an arm an a leg for that cheese.
One statement I don't think you'll ever hear me say is "I have a craving for the Melting Pot" It's difficult for me to justify the amount of money they charge for quality of the meal that is given. Even if I made a six figure income, I wouldn't be able to justify the pricing tier.
Going to the Melting Pot is like watching a fun movie where the hero dies in the end.
Don't get me wrong, we had a great time with our friends, the staff was very friendly and it's an experience to try, but only once. However, the prices will keep me away indefinetly.
