I’m no longer intimidated by preparing a Beef Wellington thanks to Chef Karen! Chef walked us through each step of preparation and voila! The best Beef Wellington accompanied by green beans and mashed potatoes! I’ll be making this menu for my family soon!

Zackary was amazing. Had lots of fun and was well worth over an 1hr drive to Austin to go. Looking forward to attending many more classes with Zachary
