Reviews
Great recipe! so yummy! Sunny is the only thing that ruins the show, so loud and obnoxious. Tired of seeing her shove food in her mouth.
Sounds wonderful, and to the earlier reviewer, I agree, Sunny needs to calm down. I’ve noticed she’s overbearing mainly when paired with Jeffrey. ).
The recipe was great – but what’s very annoying is that Sunny is so loud and intrusive – she takes over and it’s all I can hear,
Have not made yet,need to know what kind of white wine?
This was really good and was a big hit! BUT – if you are making this after watching the episode, this recipe makes a lot more than what you see on the show! I could have halved this recipe, saved a bit of money, and had more than enough for 10 people. I know for next time!
Delicious! Served this at a cocktail party. A huge hit! I would definitely make this again! Thank you, GZ!
Best ever. Don’t forget the vodka!
This fondue is excellent. Flavors blend beautifully. Really good. Easy to make. Our cheesemonger was out of Talegio Cheese and recommended a Vermont cheese called Willoughby. Wonderful. Thank you GZ.
Absolutely the best fondue we have ever had! There were more traditional fondues at the party, but this one stole the show. Easy to do as well!
