    First time at the melting pot and it didn’t disappoint! I loved their food when they were at the time out market! So thought I needed to try the restaurant! Will definitely be back!

    The Melting Pot gets first prize for flavour! Highlights were the fish tacos, the steak tartare and the biryani - all supremely delicious.
