Elite Chef Events

A little glimpse into just a few of the 15 courses from an incredible evening at Ve Oh Lay Acres with two very special friends, Maddi and Laurent. ✨🍷🍽️

Creating tasting menus like this is always a labour of love. Every course is carefully thought out, every detail intentional, and every plate designed to build on the one before it.

There's something magical about gathering around a table, sharing great food, great wine, and even better company. These are the experiences that remind me why I love what I do. ❤️

Thank you, Maddi and Laurent, for trusting me to create this experience for you and for always being such wonderful hosts. 🙏

Just a few courses shown here... 12 more delicious moments never made it to the camera. 😉✨

This is what happens when a burger stops pretending to be casual.

In this video, I build a full-on luxury beef burger from the ground up—starting with a house-made tarragon brioche bun that’s soft, aromatic, and structured enough to handle serious weight. The beef is smashed hard for maximum crust, then topped with perfectly seared foie gras that melts straight into the patty.

But the real separation comes from the layers: a deep, glossy caramelized onion finished with cassis and Chambord for sweetness, acidity, and depth, plus fresh chives to cut through the richness and keep everything in balance.

Every component is deliberate. Fat, acid, sweetness, texture—it’s all engineered so nothing overwhelms and nothing is wasted.

This isn’t just a burger. It’s controlled excess.

Full method and breakdown so you can execute it properly—no shortcuts, no guesswork.
