Fondue Fun at The Melting Pot

Cheese Fondue
A sucker for cheese fondue, @thepolishviking and I decided to finally try The Melting Pot. Reservations are highly recommended as our lack of foresight initially meant that we couldn’t get a table. Thankfully, a last minute cancellation saved the day. Located on Calgary Trail, the space is deceptively small from the outside. Once you enter the restaurant, it is actually quite large, filled with booth after booth, including some more secluded booths for those seeking a more romantic atmosphere. Burners are built into every table, allowing the different types of fondues to be heated and held at specific and constant temperatures.

What Easter Seals Means to my Female Human

Female Human and Male Human
With only 4 days left before voting ends, I thought I would get my human to guest write and tell you in her own words why raising money for Alberta Easter Seals is so important to her. Because without her rescuing me from the Cows store shelf in Banff almost 6 years ago, I wouldn’t be here today to share my thoughts with you. Please read on below and I hope that you will help Moo to get as many people as possible to vote (on.fb.me/12EUZ2Q) so that I can help my female human win $500 for Alberta Easter Seals.

Tutti Frutti Celebrity Fro-Down and Northgate Grand Opening

Trying to figure out what to make
Welcome readers! This is an interactive blog post this week! Keep on reading to find out how you can participate and help Moo raise $500 for my charity of choice, Alberta Easter Seals!

I was invited on Saturday, February 9, 2013 to attend the Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt Northgate Grand Opening! Located in Northgate Centre, this location of Tutti Frutti, unlike it's other mall locations in West Edmonton Mall and Southgate Mall, has access only from the street. Franchisee Gene Yong, who also owns the Southgate Mall location sees this as advantageous  Unlike other mall locations, the opening hours for a store front with street access only means that he can open or as late as he would like, without being hindered by mall hours.

Lit Wine Bar - Frozen Feeb Carpaccio (CLOSED)

Caprese Salad
Although I had tried Lit Wine Bar’s food very briefly at their first appearance in the 2011 Taste of Edmonton, and had thoroughly enjoyed their bocconcini wrapped with prosciutto, I had never managed to visit their actual restaurant. So when @thepolishviking and mooself found ourselves seeking sustenance in the area of 104 Street we opted to visit Lit Wine Bar when our first choice, Tzin Wine and Tapas was ruled out since we lacked the foresight to make a reservation.
