Alright, thanks for all your suggestions... I am still curious and want to try. I will email them on Jan 1st and IF I can secure BOTH a room and dinner, I will definitely go. I will then go to Le Vieux Pont the day after as Dave suggested and get back to you all next year. Thanks again.
From the website, it says email them back in January. Does anyone know how difficult is it to get a table there? ie. Is it like El Bulli that I need to email on Jan.1st??
