Originally Posted By Dr Hans Reinhardt Still, it doesn't seem as exclusive as it once was. When I was a teen it was only open to executives who were corporate sponsors at the park. A friend of mine who lived in Laguna Beach got to dine there once because her husband was an executive working for Oscar Meyer when it sponsored the River Belle Terrace.

Originally Posted By CuriousConstance I'm so picky that I doubt I'd like anything on the menu. I'm very basic in my tastes and don't like stuff all put together. I'd be interested in walking through it, but I'd never spend that kind of money on a meal.

I wouldn't pass up the opportunity if it did happen, but it's not one of those things I'm anxious to do. "I'm so excited for you!!! WOC, Carsland, BVS,Mermaid,new CC Restaurant, how exciting is this trip going to be?!" You left out the most important thing: Trader Sam's.
