Hi Shalini, I too enjoy going out to a fondue restaurant, but I love the atmosphere of having friends and family around to enjoy the delicious meals that can be prepared with the Cuisinart Electric Fondue Pot. I must admit cheese is my downfall too, yum! Thanks so much for your comments. Enjoy your fondue journey.
