THE FIRST TIME HE ATTENDED THE MASTERS, nearly a decade ago, the renowned chef Thomas Keller did what any golf and food enthusiast would do: He wandered the grounds, eating up the atmosphere and savoring the beauty. Then he made a beeline for the concession stand.

Haute cuisine it isn’t. And that, Keller says, is the point.
