“I ordered the individual Beef Wellingtons for our small Christmas dinner. They were so easy, elegant, and delicious; I served with a simple potato and fresh carrots and green beans.
The pastry crisped up nicely at 400, but the filet was a little more done than I usually serve it. I think next time ( and there will be a next time) I'll raise the heat some and cook for 25 minutes. Mushroom duxelles was delicious. We did not find the Wellington was salty as has been suggested, but the rest of the meal was simply seasoned so there was a perfect balance of richness and natural flavors.”
“Very good, the pastry comes out light and crisp, the meat was tender and tasty, and the mushroom duxelles is the icing on the cake. I will definitely order again.”
“We have ordered this several times and it is always exceptional! The filet cooks perfectly inside while the pastry is golden brown for an elegant presentation.”
“We normally prepare our own beef wellington using Julia Child's recipe. This year it seemed stupid to prepare it for just the two of us. Mackenzie to the rescue. The portion size was large but reasonable, the preparation straightforward. All in all, the result was good but not great - the beef lacked flavor. Fortunately I made Julia's brown sauce which gave it a bit more pizazz.”
“They were good, however the bread didn't brown before the meat was done...and we were shooting for medium, not even medium rare. They tasted good though.”
