Interactive Fondue Party When Patsy and John decided to throw a party for their overworked, overstressed friends, they called Trish for ideas. And what did she come up with? Fondue! It's interactive enough to break the ice, even with the oldest of friends, and it's still very casual. Plus, you can eat as much or little as you like. Guests will linger over the table as they dip fruits, crudities and breads into beef, Swiss cheese and chocolate fondues.
