There’s no celebrity chef tasked with whipping up Thursday night’s state dinner honoring President of South Korea Lee Myung-bak, but the menu is still mouth-watering. For the dinner held in the East Room, Executive Chef Cris Comerford and Pastry Chef William Yosses will serve the following, according to the White House via POLITICO 44:

First Course Butternut Squash Bisque, Honey Poached Cranberries, Virginia Cured Ham, Pumpkin Seed Praline, Crème Fraiche

Second Course Early Fall Harvest Salad on Daikon Sheets, Masago Rice Pearl Crispies, Rice Wine Vinaigrette

Main Course Texas Wagyu Beef, Orange-Ginger Fondue, Sauteed Kale, Roasted Kabocha Squash

Dessert Chocolate Malt Devils Food Layers With Pear and Almond Brittle

An American wine will be paired with each course

Two Squash dishes on one menu? How tacky! I guess Moochelle-Antoinette’s le petit hameau garden had an overload.
Let ‘em eat cake!

Thanks for the great pics.
The First Lady of South Korea is lovely.
Moochelle-Antoinette and her huge caboose, not so much. Even the obvious plastic surgery she has had cannot stop her from being a big bag ‘o ugly, or wipe that smirk off her face.

Thursday night? Hmm, I picked up a pizza on the way home from work that night after putting in about 10 hrs.

About 450 days until the Katrina entitlement looters are thrown out of the White House.
