Tournedos Rossini

Created in honor of the Italian composer Gioachino Rossini, this extravagant dish represents 19th-century haute cuisine at its most opulent. Perfectly seared medallions of beef tenderloin are crowned with thick slices of pan-seared foie gras and finished with a glossy Madeira wine sauce. The final flourish: shavings of black truffle scattered over the top. A dish of unapologetic luxury that celebrates the French tradition of culinary excess.
