S.Pellegrino is happy to have been part of the huge surprise that took place recently for Wylie Dufresne in New York - a project organized by the international chef collective Gelinaz!
The event, which took over a year of planning, saw 29 of the world’s biggest chefs come together, convince Wylie Dufresne there has been a major electrical problem at his WD-50 restaurant, and proceed to surprise him with a party in his honor.
Once the lights were on and Wylie was informed of why his colleagues from around the globe had just jumped from the darkness yelling surprise - guests sat down to sample a menu created by the chefs who had all formed into groups to remix some of Wylie’s signature dishes.
This video captures some of the excitement from the night and also some great words from Wylie about how he felt when he eventually realized what was happening.
