Anyone ever sat at a Chef's Table before?

I have always wanted to do this. It runs around $200 a person, basically sit in the kitchen, and get served by the chef, anything he feels like fixing for you.
Are there any in New Orleans? I think Emeril's does
It because his place in Biloxi does it.
Closest thing I ever done to this was at Juban's. When the waiter asked me what I wanted, I told him for the chef to decide, and to make it "off the menu".
It ended up being Chiliean Sea Bass on a bed of grits and oysters, with a crab and brie sauce. It was very good and cheaper than you would think.

Only one I know of is Commander's Palace, and apparently it's got quite a waiting list. But you can always call 'em.
Side Note - did you see this? This might be the poster I e-mailed you about, but weren't familiar with it?

I did it at Agua Dulce in NYC on my birthday last October.
It was awesome. I sat directly next to the Chef and we had a great conversation. In addition to the dishes we ordered, he gave us several complimentary appetizers and made me a creme brulee with a candle in it. :)
I have no idea how much it cost because I was there with my boyfriend and his PhD advisor and they took care of the bill. They seemed to think it was worth it, though. Wonderful experience.

There is one here in Houston called Table One. It's in the Intercontinental Hotel.
Runs from around 70 bucks for 4 courses all the way up to $1,000 for a twelve course meal.

I've eaten at the table in Emeril's kitchen several times and both times, it was outstanding. Most of us let the chef feed us, though one person preferred a certain entree. The chef asked us what kinds of foods we were interested in. We had about 5 or 6 courses and a bazillion different desserts, as I recall. Both times we did it were on Sundays, which are apparently easier to get or so we were told.

What? I don't think Emeril has a place in Biloxi. Think that bad boy is close ed.
