Hi peeps! This episode we're trying Gordon Ramsay's famous Beef Wellington as the Savoy Grill, one of Gordan Ramsay's Restaurants in London! We're also having a feast of Sunday Roast, pink slices of roast beef accompanied by Yorkshire Pudding & a side of roasted Vegetables! In the spirit of keeping us on our toes & improving our vlogs further, here's our thoughts on this vlog from a technical perspective: This episode is done rather well with some rather nice close ups & pretty suitable music pairing throughout. In fact, aside from the pace of the vlog which Wei Loon felt personally to be a tiny tad 'rushed', the vlog seems almost as good as it can be with our current filming & editing skills 😁 Sound as usual could be improved in the future with better recording practices but is generally acceptable in this vlog. Ultimately the way the dish tasted felt like the biggest 'downfall' of this vlog as it wasn't a spectacular meal at its price point despite all the beautiful close ups but I guess we win some & lose some. We hope to see you again next week, that vlog is going to be our best vlog to date 😉
I enjoy your videos, especially the way they are shot. You definitely have a talent for making documentary-esque reviews. As a frequent traveler to Paris, I have visited some of the bakeries you mentioned in your Paris series. Like both of you, my domestic partner and I travel often and much of our travel experience revolves around food. In fact, we often choose our destinations based on food cravings or to experience cuisines we have never sampled. One thing I have come to appreciate is that dining in a restaurant is a wholly immersive experience, which includes the setting, the service, drinks (wine or cocktails) and interactions with staff including maitre d', etc. My observation is that your reviews focus solely on the food and do not consider these other important aspects of dining out. For example, I dined as an adult at The Savoy hotel in London in 1996 (pre-Gordon Ramsey). I can't tell you what I ate or how good it was, but I can tell you that it was one of the most pleasantly memorable dining experiences I have ever had in my life because of the beautiful setting and the five-star service we enjoyed during our visit, all of which I remember vividly (in contrast to the food). The meal I would regard as the best I have ever had in my life to-date was superb in every one of the aforementioned aspects. I am confident if the food was excellent but the other aspects of the experience were average or poor that meal would not rate so highly. So, and please take this as constructive criticism, I suggest perhaps (of course it is your Channel and you may do with it as you wish) you widen the focus of your reviews to include the other important aspects of restaurant dining. I will continue to watch your reviews regardless. Safe travels.
Hi Ronald 👋! Thanks for your kind words ☺️, we’re glad you enjoyed our videos & we hope to keep you entertained in the future too 😋 Don’t worry about giving us constructive criticism, that’s how we learn and improve, in fact we encourage that hahaha! 😝 You do make a good point in relation to taking a wider approach when it comes to commentating our dining experience. We’ve been trying to ‘sprinkle’ a little more commentary on the setting of the restaurant as well as service (albeit rather brief)😙. We’ll continue to experiment & further improve on this aspect 😊 As for the scoring of the meal/food, we focus entirely on the food regardless of setting/service. The reason stems from our respect to the kitchen team, as front of the house isn’t always within their control. We’ve had some experiences where the service was mediocre/rigid but the food was executed at a very high level. To score it lower because of a misstep/blunder caused during service felt like a disservice to the kitchen team. Hence we’ve decided that the scores only reflect on the food and we only comment on the service/setting if it has affected us in a negative/positive way. Thank you for taking the time & effort to write to us! See you in the next food adventure~ 😋
that looks spot on to me, i cant see how they'd cook it any better (from my eye), only way it could be 'better' or 'worse' is through the ingredients themselves. and no i've not ate at that restaurant, that's like a day wage for me but maybe one day!
Hello Joseph 👋! You’re right, it’s cooked spot on, which is why our guess is the type of beef used 😌. Hope you’ve enjoyed this vlog & we look forward to see you in the next one!
Hello Natashea 👋, you're right, every time we travel for food adventures indigestion is definitely a thing 😂. Hope you've enjoyed this episode & we'll see you in the next one!
Hi there, we do agree that filming vlogs anywhere could cause inconveniences to surrounding people. Hence we always obtain permission from the establishment before we film & we do it as discreetly as we can so as not to disturb the other patrons. We hope you've enjoyed this vlog! 😊
Hello Gregory, glad you’ve enjoyed this vlog! We do understand our accent is rather different 😂. We do have subtitles for the vlog so turning it on will help hehehe 😆 We hope to see you in the next vlog!
Your English is very good but your knowledge and attention to detail is incorrect on some historical points on beef wellington .. pretty much what’s expected from a tourist .. good video .. please enjoy your meal .. then go home 😂😂😂
Hi James, glad you’ve enjoyed this video 😌. If you would be so kind to point out what historical facts we got wrong so as to enlighten us as well as the audiences. We hope to see you in our next food adventure! 😊
Why not fill us in then if your knowledge is so much better on Beef wellibgton instead of your "I'm better than yo" attitude. I mean, there is probably more than one story behind it, and who really knows the origins. I hope they stay and do more reviews.

Best travel foodie channel on TH-cam ❤
Awww you’re too kind~
I liked seeing some of Ramsay’s London restaurant. Thanks for the video.
Hello there, glad you've enjoyed this video 😁. Hope to see you in the next vlog!
The closeups on the food are making my mouth water
Hope we got you hungry 😜
Thank you for sharing your happy moments.
Hi Mojgan, glad you like this episode 😋
Was this portion filling enough? It’s interesting to see it served differently than his US restaurants.
Yes, the portions are rather filling. Do his US restaurants serve a larger portion?
@@TheGourmetPlate of the Beef Wellington yes, but it’s usually the main course of the meal rather than part of a bigger one here.
Ah I see, it is interesting how portions in different countries are different 😀
Hello, I’am wondering is the beef wellington still only available on Wednesday at noon?
Hello there 👋, if we aren’t mistaken the Beef Wellington is at Savoy Grill is available daily 😉
@@TheGourmetPlate Thanks a lot!
You’re welcome!
Wah! Looking very decadent! 👍
Hello Saadon 👋, decadent indeed 😋, hope you’ve enjoyed this vlog & we’ll see you in the next one!
Happy new year you two!! Aaa major food envy right now, i swear 2023 is going to be the year i finally try beef wellington hahaha
Hey Sparkz! Been a while 👋!!! Happy New Year to you too! How have you been? 😙

Hello Penny 👋, glad you’ve enjoyed this vlog & thank you for the kind words!
Happily 🙏👍
This is why I travel 😩😜😂, I’m going to need so many digestive enzymes for my next trip 😂😂😂😂
Hello Natashea 👋, you're right, every time we travel for food adventures indigestion is definitely a thing 😂. Hope you've enjoyed this episode & we'll see you in the next one!
@@TheGourmetPlate I sure did, thank you for sharing!
The jus needs to thicken. Who wants a runny sauce that just runs off the surface. You want a rich thick sauce that sticks to the dish
It must be quite annoying to be dining beside someone filming a critique video.

Good video, but the Singaporean accent takes a bit of getting used to…

No it doesn't you closet racist.
I thought they are Malaysian?
Yes we are Malaysian 😙
