Inside the Golden Arches

Ever wondered what makes your McDonald’s favorites so delicious? They’re spilling the secrets. 

Join McDonald’s and Top Chef Season 22 winner and former McDonald's Crew member Chef Tristen Epps-Long for a one-day-only experience that takes you into the heart of our kitchen—and closer to the food you love. 

On October 29, 2026, enjoy a complimentary chef’s table dining experience in New York City, meet the people behind the food, and get an up-close and personal look at how the Quarter Pounder® with Cheese, Egg McMuffin®, Chicken McNuggets® and World-Famous Fries® come together with fresh, responsibly grown ingredients. With Chef Tristen guiding the experience, it’s a rare chance to see a side of McDonald’s you’ve never seen before. 

Reservations are required and limited to two seats per reservation. Reservations go live 10/22 at 8am!
