Where and what presidents eat is an enduring fascination. So when the president and his wife recently dined out, their order — a chicory salad, grilled bread and butter, and two bowls of rigatoni — drew attention, and set off a virtual food fight.
Where and what presidents eat is an enduring fascination. We love to scrutinize former president Donald Trump's ketchup-doused steaks or the Obamas' penchant for culinary hot spots.
It wasn't what they ate, exactly, that got people all worked up. Their choices were on-brand: The Bidens are well known to be fans of red-sauced pasta. And they hadn't opted for some culinary lightning rod, such as foie gras or pizza topped with pineapple. It was the mere fact that they both ordered the same entree that set group chats and social media sideline commenters ablaze across the land.
That all came as a surprise to Red Hen chef and owner Michael Friedman. Often restaurants enjoy a bit of buzz following such a high-profile visit, but he wasn't expecting the direction the chatter took. "It's such an honor to have a presidential visit, but it's funny that this is what came out of it," he said. "It's a fascinating thread people have chosen to follow, and I'm just really enjoying the banter.
There are those who aren't on the same page at all. Maybe one's a sharer and the other isn't. And we all know that competitive orderer who's eager to crow about getting the better dish than their partner. Of course, she noted that people might not feel comfortable going splitsies on a first or second date, while older couples have probably established their routines.
