      Matt and I are checking out wd-50 in a few weeks. Counting down the days.

      Nice! Alinea looks pretty sweet from their website.

      It's truly amazing ... we had 19 courses, and that was the _tasting_ menu ... the tour can get up around 30 courses. A meal that is truly not possible without an army of chefs ... really once in a lifetime.

      wd~50 is a little more adventurous than Alinea (umm, shrimp noodles?), and they are a bit more casual ... I will definitely be trying it out if/when I make it to NYC.

      Alinea is a bit more upscale, 4-star service with prices to match. Although wd~50's 3rd star gives them the freedom to charge whatever they want at this point ...
