Time Out New York

The city’s best fonduesDip your way through these cheesy
(and chocolatey) delights.
The Chocolate Room 86 Fifth Ave between St. Marks Pl and Warren St, Park Slope, Brooklyn (718-783-2900) 269 Court St between Butler and Douglass Sts, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn (718-246-2600)
What you get: Chocolate fondue ($14), presented in a ceramic crock over a tea candle, is served with pineapple, banana, strawberries, a pair of marshmallows and buttery pound cake.
The experience: The Chocolate Room is a sophisticated place for adults to enjoy dessert. The wood-paneled room looks more like a bar than a pastry shop, and the amuse-bouche of chocolate-chip cake that started our “meal” hints at fine-dining aspirations. As for the fondue, the 60 percent chocolate mixture was perfectly good, but the meringuelike house-made marshmallows stole the show.
