That had been off the menu for some time at that point. Perhaps that's why you couldn't taste said chicken skin. :) The one you did eat was served with salsify, puffed yuzu, and guava roe.

I ate at WD-50 in November last year and was also impressed with the wheat bear, malt and potatoe dessert! My pics though aren't that beautiful: http://blindtasting.twoday.net/stories/4421806/ Regards, ALex Really great pics!

Possibly it kind of explains why...or you could use a table tripod for stabilization. <strong>Cakewardrobe:</strong> Thanks again. It's pricey but the experience is very unique that it's worth it. Chuck: Thanks! :)

One day I'll try it out. Tony: We were tempted to give the tasting menu a whirl but we’re not willing to splurge all the way yet. One day I’ll try it out.

I just find the regular menu to always be lacking. It's neither as experimental or as good. And never as fun. It's almost like going to another restaurant. I always recommend the tasting meu at WD50.
