Madison – The Ultimate Guide to “High-End Dining” at Fairchild 🍽️

Highly recommended dishes you MUST try: 1️⃣ Beef Tartare 🥩 This dish is truly their signature. Golden crispy potato tuile topped with silky smooth raw beef, finished with Wisconsin’s secret weapon — fragrant, creamy cheese shreds 🧀. The combination of texture and flavor is absolutely perfection. 2️⃣ Mushroom Tempura 🍄 I had zero expectations when my boyfriend ordered this, but it completely blew me away! The batter was paper-thin and fried to a delicate crisp, while the mushrooms inside remained incredibly juicy. The dipping sauce was so good I scraped the bowl clean with extra veggies! 😋 3️⃣ Maitake Mushroom Side Prepared differently than the tempura but just as excellent. The chef uses French beef seasoning techniques on these mushrooms 🧂, served alongside smooth, subtly corn-flavored polenta 🌽 — an absolute masterpiece! 4️⃣ Pork Wellington 🥩 Who knew Wellington and pork could work so well together? While it doesn’t surpass Chicago’s Croquette in classic Wellington terms, the pork is incredibly tender and expertly cooked. This main dish was far better than the monkfish I tried last time (note: Madison isn’t the best place for fish — I haven’t had a truly good fish dish here yet 🐟❌). Other dishes were good but less standout — especially the Foie Gras with PB&J 🦆🍇 which felt creative but mismatched. Overall, the flavors here are bold and salty — perfect for those who love rich, savory profiles!
