Might I ask, what is beef wellington? I have heard of it, but not what it is.

Beef Wellington is essentially a classic beef stew encrusted with puff pastry, a lot like an American classic chicken pot pie. The Brits (in higher society) take it ten steps further with the tenderloin wrapped in foie gras pate, typically served with asparagus. Otherwise, its a pretty common dish in the UK. They also have sausage Wellington or salmon Wellington, just not served in Buckingham Palace rofl

The French take it to a higher level though. Of course, its filet mignon, then butter puff pastry, bordeaux wine sauce and then black truffle shavings on top.

Sometimes, the Chinese take it way too far, with the same dish but with seafood around the plate rofl
