wd-50 - New York, NY

[xebob]

Xa1a, why bash Burger King? It doesn't pretend to be a full-fledged restaurant, and it's pretty good value for the money. Their burgers are quite good, they just need to kept working on their fries and clean up their eateries some. Even the best chefs after a hard days work routinely stop by a fast-food place for a bite, especially if they have had to taste fine-dining food all day long.

@xebob Seriously? For the love of god please stop b.s.ing yourself



[RMSCMusic]

@xebob Yeah i agree i work in a Michelin Star in Scotland and after work i eat normally Frozen asda Pizzas lol. I can't be bothered cooking after work. However though if you are going to eat in the US The French Laundry is where you want to be.

[chickenmanokout]

I used WD-40 for

cleaning out rusts

[SethHesio]

I don't know if this is the case in the US, but in the UK we have a thing called WD 40, which is an alcohol based de icing liquid used on car windows... I can't help thinking of that when I hear about this restaurant.

[Spesardjl]

I fail to understand why this turns into a bitter argument. Instead of being hostile towards each other enjoy learning about one of the greatest chef's passions.

[yeloprwlr]

@Spesardjl thats not possible. its the internet.

[FatBrianMayFan]

I saw him on masterchef last night and he still has the same hair cut.

He's a great chef, but he has the haircut of a serial killer.

[chefkoo]

Worst hair cut ever

[MrTofu667]

and i thought john lennon was shot...

[havoc151976]

these fuckers play with food to much....a simple cooked dish will always beat this f'en crap any day...any day..

[xa1a]

@havoc151976 Obviously you have 0 class, 0 free spirit, and cant afford to eat anywhere else other than Burger King. Enjoy your life. And dont send me some reply that says nothing for who you are and instead just insults me (thats what most 'people' like you do), Because I will simply post it up, and not reply. Be gone. Leave the people that know how to cook, and to eat alone, as you are a member of the drinking classes. Off you go.



[rockstar4135]

That's interesting.

[sleeekk76]

dude im FCI graduate and i appreciate what you r trying to do but at the end people go out to eat...stick to the classic and you will go a long way

[FlipSnipeZ]

@sleeekk76 i cant wait to go to the FCI :D

[Jreyes1227]

Man I would love to do my externship at WD~50 after culinary school

[skopered]

i wonder hoe long there will be this molecular gastronomy trend where i live it doesnt even really exist i dont think people would understand it

[sourcetags]

They need to get Wylie and His pastry chef, Homaru Cantou and his pastry chef, Ferran Adria and His brother (who is the pastry chef), Grant and his pasty chef in one room and make one menu. Just think what would happen. Oh, and don't forget about the president of the poly science company.

[SethHesio]

They got him to put the bong down long enough to interview him.

[remasbolt]

presentation looks amazing, the way he cares about his life and work is impressive at least. must try this sometime

[TheNearlySane]

he's not social awkward at all. when i went to wd-50 our server just let us walk into the kitchen and meet wylie and he was really conversational and just a cool dude.

[SethHesio]

He needs a haircut and a girlfriend.

[thew]

has a beautiful wife and baby

[doggieGZ]

he may be one of the most socially awkward chefs,

but his food is brilliant, it really is. originality is not an easy skill to come by.

[doggieGZ]

In fact, his sense of humour is completely obsolete.

[doggieGZ]

Haha, Wylie is so socially awkward

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

These people suck-ass.

If you want an awesome meal go to Chicago and eat at Moto.

AWESOME RESTAURANT. Incredible food concoctions!

[anarchocyclist]

Sooo... you only eat at moto, or what? In case you didn't know, making smoke with lasers is stupid.

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

Only Moto and Red Lobster. Honestly, the only two restaurants with quality.

[thebardtenone]

please tell me that's sarcasm... I used to work at R Lob, and trust me, they've never pumped out 'quality' food.

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

Sarcasm...oh yes!

That establishment is guilty of the most impure edible* blasphemies.

*barely

[tumuchgame]

@anarchocyclist ..i agree. seriously can you imagine a server falling into the laser? lol @ smoke w/ lasers is stupid.

[iamstinkynoreally]

@GrlLeastLikelyTo If you are going to go to Chicago to eat, eat at Alinea, not moto. I ate at both on back to back nights in November last year and moto is good, but leagues -- seriously LEAGUES -- behind what was happening at Alinea.

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

@iamstinkynoreally I have heard of it... heard very GOOD things about it :)  Right now I can't afford any such culinary experience though :(

[Saltydog55252]

Is it me? The place looks butt ugly?

[dusting03]

10 yeasr ago puff pastry was a "taboo" now its in every chefs kitchen, grocery stores, etc etc. gums, algin,lecithan, etc etc is next....

[geminiwoe]

Ha! I know him... He's a quality guy. I tell him that he works in a diner next to jacks bistro all the time.. He gets a kick out of it..

[pvoss07]

Really great. I had the perch as the main course, duck to start, and we split a bottle of wine for a little over 200 with tip. But really fantastic. I put it up there with Le Bernadin.

[chaosnyli]

I have been there last week. fantastic food. service.. was not bad but personable. easy to spend a lot on food but i do not regret it at all..

[eensha6242001]

What did you get to eat,how much did you spend

[Totoyjr]

love this video.. great modern presentation..

[bohforme]

Now out of all these rest. I believe most in what this guy has to say, WD-50 here i come!!!
