The Chandler Steakhouse at the MGM Springfield

We had an excellent gastronomic dinner at the traditionally elegant restaurant, The Chandler Steakhouse at the MGM Springfield on June 15, 2019. Under 1-year old, the restaurant will celebrate its 1-year anniversary in August 2019. Gorgeous décor and attentive service was the perfect foil for Executive Chef Kyle Beausoleil’s cuisine.

After dinner, Chef Kyle took time to speak with Luxury Experience. A New Englander who grew up in Eastern Connecticut and worked in Connecticut and Massachusetts, Chef Kyle found his passion for cooking at age 15 when he started by washing dishes in a restaurant in Brooklyn, Connecticut. Showing interest and potential, he was promoted to prep, and then fry station. From there his career took off, learning along the way from great chefs and carefully honing his craft at top steakhouses as Michael Jordan’s and David Burke Prime.

He joined The Chandler Steakhouse in February 2019, bringing his knowledge and passion for seafood and steaks and creating an outstanding experience for his guests. His favorite seasoning? Soy. During his stint at David Burke Prime he became attracted to Asian fusion, which he has adopted into his own culinary style.

The menu is a perfect blend of seafood, steak, and has vegan items as well to appeal to diverse palates. For summer, there will be fresh sweet corn, broccolini, and other seasonal vegetables. Chef Kyle will also be adding a 32-ounce Tomahawk Steak for two to the menu, as well as a pork chop with cippolini and rhubarb chutney. In September, he will change the menu to incorporate seasonal ingredients.

When not inthe kitchen working or dreaming up new recipes, he likes to spend time with his wife and two young daughters, age 3 years and 18 months. His advice to those wishing to pursue a culinary career is make sure you want to do this, as you must be dedicated. Having dined at The Chandler Steakhouse and experienced his culinary expertise, Chef Kyle Beausoleil definitely has the dedication and passion.
