Want to spice up your date night?

We tried something a little different from our usual weekly dinner date night.  Did you know The Melting Pot has a late night special where any night after 9 pm you can stop in and get the chocolate dessert fondue and a bottle of wine for $25?  It's a great deal considering that on its own the fondue is $15+, and obviously any bottle of wine in a restaurant is at least $25.  Even if you want to upgrade to a nicer bottle of wine, they'll cut $10 off whatever the regular price is. 

This works out great if you do something like what we did Saturday night.  We just grabbed a light bite to eat, caught a 7:00 movie, and then had a 9:30 reservation at Melting Pot where we indulged in the cookies and cream fondue and a bottle of Evolution (this was a really good, light white wine that was perfect with the dessert).  It was so fun and something a little different!

By the way, we saw Crazy, Stupid, Love which was a really cute feel-good movie (well, after you get a little ways in to it).  I loved the cast...Steve Carrell, Julianne Moore, Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone...and there were some laugh out loud parts.  I cried at the end too (happy tears though).  It was just an all around good movie.


Anyways, thought y'all might like to try it out if you have a MP near you.
