You thought you ate a lot for Thanksgiving?
Turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie were just the beginning as President-elect Donald Trump dined with his family at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
Their festive feast included six choices of main courses and eight different desserts including "three-layer Trump chocolate cake."
Here's what else was on the soon-to-be first family's menu.
Mar-a-Lago Chilled Seafood Display Large Florida Stone Crabs
Oysters on the Half Shell
Jumbo Shrimp
Middle Neck Clams
From the Garden Mr. Trump's Wedge Salad
Farm-Fresh Deviled Eggs....

I’d say he worked hard enough over the past year and a half to deserve a feast. And all the desserts he can eat!
not red neck clams? :-)
And the Media had one dish....Crow!
No “fusion” dishes, or nouveau cuisine.
Mmmm.
Amazing how Don Jr’s location looks far humbler than that spread at Mar a Lago.
Are redneck clams like rocky mountain oysters? :-)
Perfect post!
And still less food than the Obamas shovel down in one unimportant weekend.
Interesting possibility
But how many different pies did he have?!?! The Obamas has SIX!
You don't understand. We're supposed to be jealous and resentful of the ostentatious opulence.
Truth is 24 dishes is about what we had - everybody brings something and ends up taking more home. Would have liked the stone crabs though. We just don't grow them in Arizona.
That, and maybe the leftover pizza rolls from B&M's last White House Thanksgiving spread.
Glad he was able to take a break and savor his victory. All of America can be thankful for that.
I had oysters on the half shell but I have to chew them first as I keep thinking they will swim around in my belly otherwise. I do like the salty ocean-like taste.
Sounds like the menu from the resort’s restaurant.
Would like the recipe for 3 layer chocolate cake. Yum.
That’s exactly what I was thinking! It sounds like a buffet for a resort.
I do think The Donald is a meat & potatoes guy - another reason to love the Man who is the opposite of the Arugula President.
Yeah, but Trump paid for his feast, unlike the Kenyan who put it all on his EBT Gold card.
And, unlike some others I will not mention, we can be pretty sure that not ONE PENNY spent on the meal was from taxpayer funds.
Would also imagine DT would hire his own Chef and wait staff when he assumes office - Again, got a feeling the budget at the White Hut will nose dive significantly.
Of course the MSM will definitely focus on Mrs Trump staying in NY with child and would imagine NO one from the T family will stand to collect a huge pension when the family leaves the WH.
