It's Apple, raspberry and cherry with chunks of Milky way (our bars are without caramel, like your 3 m bars - I believe it originated in US occupied bases in Germany)

Not fondue.

That's cooking meat & bread and such in molten cheese. This is "hot pot".

Thin sliced marinated chicken & beef, veggies and shrimp - you take a couple of each, drop them into a wide wire basket & sorta simmer them in the hot chicken stock until cooked.

It's not boiling. - more simmering.

And it is delicious.

I just googled it - it's totally a thing. And it was my favorite family meal growing up. We did it at least a few times a month.

It's always perfect for Danielle and I (who don't agree about very many dishes - at all) to make things with a common base ingredient and then we'll each pretty much choose our own adventure from there ...
 
I'll slice beef ...
 
She'll slice chicken ...
 
There's *very* little overlap, LOL ...

I want to see one of those baskets on a stick.  LDHS, what type marinades did you use, and what type dipping sauces?  This sounds like a slow paced meal that could take hours.  Marvelous!
 
Would these be the baskets?
