U.S. fondue franchise eyeing the GTA

American fondue chain The Melting Pot announced earlier this week that it’s “actively seeking franchisees to bring its interactive dining experience to Toronto.” The experience—which is currently available at 135 outlets across the States and Mexico, plus a single Canadian location in Edmonton—involves, as one might expect, dunking various skewered things (breads, meats) into pots filled with cheese, broth, oil or chocolate. (There used to be a Melting Pot location in Richmond Hill, but it closed last year.) This jokey vid provides a primer on the melty wonders potentially in store. [Via Eater Toronto]
I’m pretty sure there was a location on East Beaver Creek Dr. in Markham which shut down about a year ago.
They have already been here and gone….Chef Corbin from come dine with me was part owner of the failed resto. I went three times when it was here
