3 hours for 2 courses - yes, definitely too long. But it's not too long when you go to a place like Carte Blanche where it's a dining event/experience for the night. Both times we've been to Carte Blanche we've been there from 7pm-11:30pm and the time just flies by. But there is interaction with the chef, wine tastings, and 5 courses. I can definitely sit that long if I'm having a great time eating, drinking, socializing, and being entertained. However, a dinner at Anna Maria's is a far cry from Carte Blanche - two completely different restaurants/concepts.

Is Pam Pam the one with the student chefs/wait staff?

I don't think so. The chef has actually won some local awards at the last competition, but not on the night were there. The waiter, Juan Carlos, was quite good and has been there a while.

all of the times we were there, yes.
we have not been there for a yr or so, since our last 2 times were not good.

they may have changed chefs.

the whole place is full of student interns from holland and other locations
