If you google "Gordon Ramsay signature dish", a recipe of the Beef Wellington pops up. Yes, we remember this one tv cook off episode where a contestant tried to impress Chef Gordon with a Beef Wellington and Ramsay said something about that the contestant had guts because it took him hundreds of attempts to perfect the Beef Wellington.

If you have followed our blog stories then you know that we are currently in London, home of many restaurants of Gordon Ramsay. We thought of going to the Michelin starred restaurant, but we've decided to go for Heddon Street Kitchen as it was just near our AirBNB near the Piccadilly Circus. It also had the Beef Wellington and boy did we enjoy this one!!! A dream came true!
We truly can recommend "HSK" for all the following reasons:
great ambience
fair prices
amazing staff from the one who took our order to the one bringing the food and heck, even the manager took his time to introduce himself to us!
We will go back again for sure and no, we are not hired nor getting paid by HSK to write this.
Question of the day: What's can you say about the Beef Wellington in general?
The Beef Wellington would enjoy a firm place in the English culinary scene, even making waves abroad (it was reportedly one of Richard Nixon's favourites!) But would gain the most popularity when Gordon Ramsay picked it up as his favourite, signature dish. Wanting to get a culinary career in a Gordon Ramsay restaurant?
Wikipedia states, “A signature dish is a recipe that identifies an individual chef. Ideally it should be unique and allow an informed gastronome to name the chef in a blind tasting. It can be thought of as the culinary equivalent of an artist finding their own style, or an author finding their own voice.
It is generally agreed that the dish was created in celebration of the first Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley, and his victory at the Battle of Waterloo on June 18 1815. The Duke was given his title after defeating Napoleon Bonaparte the year before, and not long after he became Prime Minister.
