My DD and I did Shamu dinner when we were there Oct 2006. To be honest, I wasn't that impressed. The orca wasn't there for very long and there wasn't any one on one interaction. The best you could do was go talk to the trainer after the dinner. The food was okay - buffet style though they brought drinks to the table. We much preferred our character b'fast that morning; would be sorry to see that go. Lots of character interaction and they did a little show for you too. We got to see them dressed up in Halloween costumes too since it was a Spooktacular day when we were there.
