BK’s Original Mac & Cheese Benefits The Hungry in SoCal
Today is the official launch of BK’s Original Mac & Cheese! While Chef Bill Bracken was at the Peninsula Beverly Hills more than 20 years ago he created the recipe that caused quite a stir at the hotel since it was unheard of for a Five Star, Five Diamond Hotel to offer Mac n Cheese on the menu.
“I put it on the menu and boom a trend was born. It wasn’t exactly my plan to be famous for macaroni and cheese but everyone loved it and before you knew it, Mac n Cheese was popping up on menus in the trendiest places in LA.
The Taleggio cheese is what makes it so good. It has quite a history, worth researching and comes from the Val Taleggio region of Italy. While the aroma is very pungent the flavor is quite unique and mild. Combined in my sauce and mixed with truffles it makes this dish fabulous."
Each order of BK’s Mac & Cheese will go towards Bracken’s Kitchen mission to feed more people in need.
