Imagineer Lunch, any good?

[Ducky4Disney]

I am traveling to WDW with a good friend who has been to WDW before, but she's never done it right . She mentioned that she thought being an Imagineer would be great, and when I told her that she could eat lunch with one, she got very excited . I've read a couple of reviews form allearsnet, but I'd like to hear some more.

My DD did this last summer and absolutely loved it. You get to eat with one of several Imagineers working at WDW. The Imagineers rotate so they each do a couple of lunches or dinners a month. You eat in a special room in the Brown Derby and the meal consists of an individual Cobb salad, a choice of one of three entrees, dessert, and non-alcoholic beverage. I believe my DD ordered the filet and she mentioned that one of the other entrees was the Thai noodle bowl. You will also receive a souvenir plate that celebrates 50 Years of Imagineering. It is a LARGE black plate with gold lettering and the Imagineer will sign it for you. The charge last summer was $60 plus tax and tip. A dinner is also offered and that includes wine pairings with each course. The last price I remember for this was $100 plus tax and tip.
I believe my DD ate with Jason Searle(I think that this is his name). He is considered a "show writer" and has written many shows at WDW including "Who Wants to be a Millionaire". He also wrote a collector's book on The Haunted Mansion movie and told my DD that he was currently working on a book about the Pirates of the Caribbean movie.
This is one of the best gifts that I have ever given to my DD and the money spent was well worth it. She plans on doing the dinner on our next vacation this summer.
