HAWAII - The Melting Pot ... English style

We all went to The Melting Pot restaurant on Maui, thinking it would be a unique dining experience for our English friends ... and it was ... for all of us. It was one of those 'you had to be there' nights and I wouldn't be surprised if they banned us from ever entering their restaurant again. We placed our orders and they were served to us raw. We were given two pots ... one with oil and one with a broth in which we could cook our own meals with the fondue forks provided. We were given three things in which to dip our food, so we could cook it with different flavors ... then we had dips to coat the cooked food once out of the pots. Then we have five people who had no idea what they were doing! Well, when there are seven people all trying to cook their food at one time, the forks become entangled and the food becomes snagged when trying to extract the fork from the pot. One by one we fell to the curse .. but it was mostly Babs who was having the worst time trying to (1) understand what she was supposed to do and (2) trying to do it! We were absolutely roaring at the shenanigans ... all seven of us ... and all I can say is that it's a good job they put us in a corner of the restaurant. After the hilarity was starting to lessen (we were laughing at it for the next few days), my sister recorded this piece but it's only a part of the 'interview' and, as I said before, you really had to be there.
