Never suffer through dry chewy beef or bland Stroganoff sauce again - this recipe delivers!! The beef stroganoff was outstanding; definitely the best taste I have ever eaten. The freshly brewed decaf coffee was also very good. My husband liked the Baked Alaska, I did not like it at all. All said, there are many other dessert options, so will pass on that dessert.
