Can this 70s fad be far behind?

50s and 60s.

Atlanta until several years ago had a great fondue restaurant for decades, Dante’s Down the Hatch. Dante was also an original SEAL plank holder and quite an interesting guy. We once took some friends there whose son was a SEAL. They told the son about Dante’s, and his reaction was “oh sure, a SEAL” (there are a lot of fake SEALs out there). Then he checked it out, and Dante checked out as real. They went with the son the next time he was in town, and Dante wouldn’t hardly leave the table talking to the son.

Oh, and we have a fondue pot from the sale when the restaurant closed down.

Great Fondue recipe, 2 to 1 combo Swiss and Gruyere, Rub the pot with garlic, light it and pour in a good white wine (dry or semi dry) slowly combine the shredded cheese with the wine in the pot until melted and combined, dip in cubed French Baguette pieces and slurp..

Our local Aldi sells a fondue cheese blend. We have a couple fondue pots. Our kids love fondue nights.

Last year I gave my son and d-i-l my fondue gear. They have a lovely patio and often have their meals out there...perfect for a fondue dinner.
