TAMPA, Fla., April 17 /PRNewswire/ -- This Mother's Day, a meal at The Melting Pot (http://www.meltingpot.com/) fondue restaurant gives moms what they really want: stress-free, quality family time and delicious food without the hassle of a messy kitchen.

While retailers are stocking shelves with typical gifts like greeting cards, jewelry, perfume and flowers, The Melting Pot suggests going beyond cliche sentiments to honor mothers in a truly meaningful way.

Last year more than 35 percent of Americans purchased flowers for Mother's Day, according to a nationwide poll conducted by the Society of American Florists.

"Flowers just sit there and look nice," said Kendra Sartor, vice president of brand development for The Melting Pot. "With as busy as families are today, we want to give moms the time and opportunity to slow down, talk with their families and just enjoy spending time together."

Lasting approximately two hours, the meal allows for plenty of family time and conversation over four courses -- a salad plus cheese, entree and chocolate dessert fondues. The menu also offers nutritious dippers like fruits and veggies, breads, meats and seafood, which makes healthy eating something even kids can enjoy.

"Fondue just encourages interaction," adds Sartor. "And for once, people of all ages, including moms and dads, are actually encouraged to play with their food."
