Inspired by a social media sensation, Melting Pot is serving Dubai Chocolate Fondue on its menu for a limited time. Now available at select locations through September while supplies last, Dubai Chocolate Fondue combines luscious milk chocolate, white chocolate and pistachio butter, plus toasted kataifi and crushed pistachios for the crunchy texture people crave from the viral snack. This chocolate fondue is served with a wide range of dippers, including fresh strawberries, pound cake, and marshmallows, and is available as part of Melting Pot's four-course dining experience or à la carte.
"The Dubai chocolate trend represents exactly the kind of innovative, social dining experience our customers crave, and our culinary team has expertly adapted this viral sensation into a shareable fondue experience," said Ana Malmqvist, Chief Brand Officer of Melting Pot.
