Queen Michelle Dines On $81 Steak, $100 Appetizers During Birthday Dinner At Swank D.C. Restaurant…

Firmly in the one-percent.

Via Obama Foodorama:

. . . For dinner, the President and Mrs. Obama both enjoyed American Wagyu Top Cap, which is served in a 10 0z portion ($81). Executive Chef Victor Albisu personally did the cooking, which earned him a hug and warm thanks from the First Lady at the end of the evening. Side dishes were family style for the table, and included French Fries, Mashed Potatoes, Caramelized Brussel Sprouts with Bacon, Creamed Spinach, and Hen of the Woods Mushrooms. Appetizers ordered for the table to share were also steak: The American Wagyu Skirt Steak (10 0z, $55) and 28-Day Dry Aged New York Strip (16 0z, $46). House-made sauces are served with the steaks, and include Horseradish, Peppercorn, 3 Mustards, and “Steak” sauce.

The house signature bread is a huge, fluffy Popover, served piping hot to guests after ordering, accompanied by a salt shaker the size of a pint of milk. The Obama party enjoyed red and white wine with their dinner, Wright said. He was joined by two other managers who performed the duties of servers.

The birthday cake was Red Velvet, which is not on the BLT menu but served because it is “a favorite” of the First Lady’s, Wright said. There was no inscription on top, thanks to a crumb topping, and the cake was accompanied by Cream Cheese Ice Cream. Mrs. Obama closed her eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candles to cheers from her guests.

    “Mrs. Obama closed her eyes and made a wish before blowing out the candles to cheers from her guests.” Her wish was for this to go on forever.

    Let’s throw these bums out, we can’t afford another 4 years of them!

    Red velvet cake is a “favorite” of the First Lady’s.

    But if french fries were a favorite of your little kid, FLOTUS says you can’t have any. Apple slices only.

    I detest these people. Absolutely vile.

    I don’t begrudge her a nice meal – as long as it’s not paid by the public. But don’t tell us we can’t eat steak and fries and cake for dessert because we’re overweight, you fat-assed bitch.

    Would someone please find the true meaning, in her own mind, of her “two thumbs up” gesture ?
    I understand that in some parts of the world it DOES NOT mean good or good luck but really means something akin to “sit on this”.

    That meaning would be more likely to be coming from to the Mooch, doncha think ? ?

    I will give credit where credit is due: The dress appears to look nice on her. Of course, I can’t see the bottom and it would look better if she had a bustline of some sort.

    Happy birthday to Mooch,
    Did I pay for your red & white hooch,
    Was the burger I brought yummy?
    I hope it added pounds to your bummy.
    Of your birth day I sing
    Did I pay for your bling?
    Did you enjoy your cake
    While it’s my money you take
    Wearing black was a warm-up
    For your funeral when yo boy’s term’s up

    My special B-Day wish for you and your enlarged derriere O.butt is:

    May your next birthday be celebrated in your Rezko ill-gotten Chicago home owned by Harrison Bounel and may Harrison celebrate his birthday Aug 6th in jail doing his second term as faux POTUS.

    Chef Albisu will be voting Barack Obama ’12 whether he intended to or not.

    No problem with the peas eaten with a knife. Mooch declared that no peas are to be served in the dining room during her celebration! Those are for the ‘little people’ who would not eat steak as an APPETIZER before eating it as a MAIN COURSE!!

    “fish doan fry in da kitcheen
    beans doan burn on da greeilll
    Tooks a whole lotta tryin
    Just ta gets up dat hill”

    Given that they likely did not have what is defined as a “serving”

    10 oz Wagyu Steak – 830 calories
    Mashed potatoes – 1200 calories (doubtful it was one serving given it was served family style, and it likely had fat rich ingredients) (likely at least two servings)
    French Fries – 600 calories (given how much she says she likes french fries)
    Carmelized Brussel Sprouts/w Bacon – approx 200 calories
    Creamed Spinach – 400 calories
    Hen of Woods mushrooms – 400 calories
    Steak appetizers – approx 600 calories
    Bread – 200 calories
    Red velvet cake – approx 500 calories (you know she probably had a huge piece)
    Cream cheese ice cream 300 (again, no on eats a recommended serving size. Particularly Mooch)

    Figure about a 4000 plus calorie dinner.

  70. Harrison J. Bounel says:
    January 18, 2012 at 5:43 pm

    1) Fillet Steak (grilled) 210 calories per 3.5 ounces / 100 grams x 10 oz = 600 calories
    2) French fries – 155 calories
    3) mashed taters – 237 calories
    4) caramelized Brussel sprouts – 131 calories add bacon – 80 calories
    5) Creamed spinach – 280
    6) skirt steak (smaller portion) – 210
    7) ny strip – 210
    8) horseradish sauce – 15
    9) steak sauce – 15
    10) popover roll – 72
    11) red wine – 150 / glass x 3 = 450
    12) red velvet cake – 170

    Total = 2,494 calories

    Result = 5’11″ 185lbs turd

    Who cares what they ate or how much it cost THEM? They paid for it, and they can eat it every night if they want. The President HIMSELF has stated how much better financially his family is than most are in this country and he has paid for MANY things at the White House that he would NOT have had to, and was not paid for out of pocket by PREVIOUS Presidents! He has stated that HE should be taxed at a higher rate himself because of his financial situation. Do any of you think other Presidents have not paid for expensive dinners? Why is THIS family any different than the First families before them? The answer is: they aren’t. The issues aren’t really what the First family is eating and how much it costs. The issues are who will be the first to exhibit their prejudice and pettiness to complain about it! I hope they truly enjoyed their meal, and I’m betting those who waited on them were thrilled to do so! Happy Birthday, First Lady Obama. You are beautiful INSIDE and OUT! May your beauty continue to SHINE for another four years in the White House! One of the BEST families we have had living there in YEARS! :)

    Mrs Blowhard,
    1) He is on our payroll. Thus, what he pays for dinner from his paycheck comes from MY paycheck first.

    Frankly, since when did conservatives start worrying about how other people spend their money? Unlike most of the Republican nominees for president, neither of the Obamas grew up with a silver spoon in their mouth. They made their money the hard way – they earned it. Why shouldn’t President Obama be able to treat his lady to a nice dinner on her birthday? Have we really become that petty as a nation where we would begrudge our own President a little down time with his family?

    As usual resort to racist name-calling! “Michelle(Moochelle, the Duchess, etc) is ruining the image of the First Lady” or something like that? Huh? She’s only done what every other First Lady’s have done. Sheesh. Now if you want to make an argument and say all first ladies suck then I won’t stop you racists!
