The evening

Beef Wellington is universally recognized as the ultimate test of a chef’s precision. This masterclass strips away the intimidation of classical fine dining to teach you the exact science behind the crown jewel of the steakhouse menu. From rendering a moisture-free mushroom duxelles to mastering the structural geometry of the perfect puff pastry wrap, you will learn how to achieve a shattering-crisp, golden exterior while keeping the center-cut filet mignon a flawless, juicy medium-rare.

    The Star: Individual Classic Beef Wellington

    The Flavor: Center-cut Prime Filet Mignon seared to lock in flavor, layered with a rich, earthy wild mushroom duxelles, savory Prosciutto di Parma, and a delicate herbed French crêpe wrapper to protect against sogginess.

    The Contrast: Roasted Asparagus with Classic Béarnaise
