The Beef Wellington Dinner Dilemma: AITA For Not Inviting A Friend Who Only Eats Well Done Beef?

A man is facing criticism for his refusal to cook well done beef for a dinner party. The man, who is known for his hobby cooking, was asked by a friend to make a Beef Wellington for a get together. The friend offered to pay for the ingredients and the man agreed to make it with the caveat that it might not be perfect. However, when one of the guests cancelled, the man was faced with a dilemma when two other guests suggested bringing a friend who only eats well done beef. Despite the insistence of the other guests, the man refused to compromise the quality of the dish and is now being accused of being unaccommodating. What do you think of this situation ? Is the man an a**hole for refusing to cook well done beef?

A dilemma over a fancy dinner for friends.

A home cook’s dilemma over a fancy dinner for friends. It all started when Brandon, a friend, proposed to pay for the expensive ingredients of a viral dish, ‘Beef Wellington,’ and asked if the 35-year-old home cook could make it. The home cook agreed to make the dish for eight people, including Brandon and six guests. However, a few days before the dinner, one guest canceled. Two other guests proposed to bring along their mutual friend, Ava, who doesn’t eat beef with any pink. The home cook refused the suggestion since the whole dish is cooked the same, and it’s not possible to make a single portion well done. The home cook’s reasoning was that it’s not worth making a fancy dish that he himself wouldn’t eat, just to accommodate the one guest, and it’s not fair to cater to someone else other than Brandon, who’s paying for the meal. However, the two guests are accusing the home cook of being unaccommodating and excluding Ava, and calling him an a**hole. What do you think? The comments section is waiting for your reaction.
