Rory McIlroy is preparing to host the Masters Champions Dinner with an extravagant 12-item menu that reflects his personality and tastes. The defending champion spared no expense for the annual gathering of past Masters winners, including personal touches like his mother's bacon-wrapped dates and Irish Champ as a side dish.

The menu features local Georgia ingredients like Vidalia onion rings and peach flatbread alongside luxury items like wagyu filet mignon and seared salmon. McIlroy ensured authenticity by having Augusta National staff fly to Le Bernardin in New York to prepare his favorite tuna carpaccio with foie gras exactly as he enjoys it.

For wine pairings, McIlroy selected a 1990 Chateau Lafite Rothschild, which he drank when completing his career Grand Slam last year, and a 1989 Chateau D'Yquem from his birth year. The Northern Irishman carefully crafted the menu to balance personal favorites with dishes he believes fellow champions will appreciate.
