Meltmongers (Bruntsfield)

• Meltmongers is not strictly a restaurant
• You could technically have a main and dessert which is why I am reviewing it
• Whilst Meltmongers is a small venue
• It was getting close to being full whilst we were there and plenty of other customers were popping in for takeaways
• I decided to go with the Big Cheese and my friend went for the Melt Madame
• I was expecting to brave hoards of people but alas it was an oasis of calm
• As I approached there were a few people leaving with brown paper bags (I could smell the melted cheese sandwiches inside
• ) and all bar one table was taken (there are only 5 6 tables in here)
• The menu is displayed on the wall but there are also menus on the tables
• I read through the mountains of cheesy combinations that can be ordered and settled on the good ol fashioned straight up Meltmonger Classic which is mature cheddar with classic American cheese
• Social media is great for finding places to eat
• After seeing an incredible looking grilled cheese on Instagram I quickly had to find out where it was from and get one
• Finding out it was Meltmongers in Bruntsfield was great
• Being a Saturday afternoon it was quite busy
• I instantly fell in love with the design
• There is a variety of different ways to have your grilled cheese and we chose The Big Cheese and the Smoked Chilli Cheese with a side of Sweet Potato fries
• Once we had taken a seat we realised there were also menu's on the table
• These menus showed that there is a choice of bread
• The Big Cheese was my favourite
• The fries were some of the best I've had (and I eat a lot of sweet potato fries)
• They were deliciously crunchy on the outside whilst still being soft and fluffy on the inside (my mouth is watering just thinking about them)
• The only disappointment was that we weren't asked about our bread
• This is something that we'll remember for next time because there are so many melts we need to try
• Forgot what one was but the other was beef with capsicums
• Normally this large amount of melted cheese would be too heavy for me but it was just f****cking delicious
• Got a melon soda with it too which wasn't too sweet but acidic enough to be the perfect match for the toasties
• I'm glad this shop is in a different country to where i live else i will be broke and have heart disease
• If you want to indulge in your cheese toasties habitat this is the place to go
