Wylie, Eggs, Chihuahuas
This week, Studio 360 follows the art and science of a delicious meal. Kurt Andersen visits the kitchen of Wylie Dufresne, who owns the adventurous New York restaurant WD-50. Dufresne believes that the organic ingredients and fine food are not incompatible with the kind of chemicals we might see on a packet of Twinkies. We’ll follow the creation of a single dish — Eggs Benedict — from the egg farm to the taste test.
