The Melting Pot Restaurant


The Melting Pot in Cleveland is a fun dining experience.  We visited the Legacy Village location for Mother's day and my daughter has been asking to go back for her birthday.  Plan on spending 2 hours to go through a 3 course meal. 



Use drink pouch containers to create box top collection containers fit for bulletin boards



I wrapped the box (leaving the top open) and covered with a school label as well as box top & label images.  These boxes can then be pinned to a cork bulentin board and won't take up any counter space at the shop/office/church etc that agreed to collect them for you.

The Refuge ~ General Info and Party location review

 Located in Liberty, the Refuge operates as a faith-based youth hangout during the week but is available for rent.  The building was formerly a landscaping or home construction business and offers a small kitchen (sink, fridge, island counter), dining area, dance floor with stage (great for Just Dance games!), other video game systems, pool tables, basketball hoops in the gym and parking lot, comfy lounge seating. 


Winter street view



Your event will be posted on that sign, might be helpful to tie balloons to it as the building sits back from the road 


 
large chalk wall offers a fun backdrop for a photobooth





 
This U shaped counter doesn't move, a table skirt easily covers their logo and there is plenty of space for presents, etc.


 
This would be my only complaint, there's not a convenient spot to hang a pinata'
