WD-50
Wylie Dufresne's Lower East Side restaurant has been rocking our world with experimental, technique-driven dishes for years. WD-50's new 12-course menu, priced at $155, might sound like a hefty tag for delicious new thrills: A nest of hot-pink noodles made from lobster roe is a standout, as is the sticky nigiri of mackerel and salsify, beaded with trout roe and spherified seaweed. But if you've got something to celebrate (or dinner is on someone else), Dufresne's new brainteasers are definitely worth it. 50 Clinton Street, 212-477-2900, wd-50.com (10002)
