Retro Restaurants Live!!


Started in 1975, this is a continuously retro fondue restaurant. You have to check out the kitschy interactive website for this place, featuring impossibly ecstatic patrons, kick-ass drink recipes, and elevator musak! The Melting Pot

As referenced here (in a topic about inventing a restaurant that only serves outdated retro foods like fondue and chop suey): Flickr user Dania Hurley's comment, on Joey Harrison's Flickr page

I am so happy that there is a franchise coming soon to my area at Crossgates Mall in Albany, NY!
