Are you hosting an Oscar party but want to bring it to the next level?
We had an EXCLUSIVE chat with chef Wayne Elias of Crumble Catering over at Rockwell: Table & Stage, and he gave us all the sweet (and savory) deets!
His first creation? Oh, just a Grilled Mascarpone Asian Pear Sandwich. His second idea? Gingered Ahi Tuna Tartar Wonton Chips. Yes, you can officially start salivating! And here’s the best part — you can make these hors d’oeuvres at home yourself with help from these recipe videos!
Chef Wayne has been the Head Creative Chef at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party for the past decade! In fact, this will be his 11th year! That’s right, Crumble Catering will be serving 1,000 A-list guests a five-course meal, served via waiter, and this is his third year collaborating on the menu with Gordon Ramsay.
In fact, you can ch-ch-check out the menu (below)!!!
