going to wd-50 for the 1st time soon and im looking forward to it.. I would LOVE to get a tour of the kitchen (i'm a bit of a food AND chemistry geek!) and I have no idea how to arrange this .. even for a quick 5 min behind the scenes.. any ideas? anybody know anybody that can help out? Would be greatly appreciative!
Thanks!

After doing the tasting menu, they just offered to show us the kitchen (and it truly is amazing, and wylie was extremely friendly) - I would say just ask the hostess or your waiter, and I'm sure it will be fine.

yes! Last time I went my bf mentioned to the waitress that I was a big fan of Wylie's and she offered to show us the kitchen and take me to meet him. After dinner she brought us back, showed us where to stand so we wouldn't bother any of the chefs and then we met Wylie. He was really friendly despite my incoherent ramblings and gushing.

Just make sure you don't go on a Sunday -- that's Wylie's day off.

When I went there for dinner I just asked if I could take a peak inside and they were totally nice about it and brought us in, explained all the stations, etc. Wylie wasn't there that night though! :( But it was cool. Awesome food!!!

I agree! Just ask, they are very nice, we even took pictures with Wylie...

Go early in the week when Wylie is there (Monday, Tuesday) and get the tasting menu. They usually offer you a tour when you're done but if not, just ask.

They aren't open Monday or Tuesday. You don't have to order the tasting menu (but I would); just ask your server for a kitchen visit and they will take you back after your meal.

Wylie was extremely gracious, as was his staff.. that kitchen is amazing, and I think they dig food geeks checking it out.
