State banquet menu

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

Well, some people are adventurous and like to try new things. Some are stunted and don't like to experiment with new things. I am with you on the watercress panna cotta, though, it really doesn't sound great. They should have just served the McD's value meals and not wasted money on good port and cognac. They could have taken a colored marker and written "45" and "47" on the diet coke cans and he would have thought that was special.

45 and 47?

Biden was 46th president of the US, Trump 45 and 47 (unfortunately).

The 1945 port was in honor of his being 45th...

The 1912 cognac was in honor of what year he’s trying to take us back to…Imperialism, Protectionism, and no women voting.

The 1912 cognac was in honor to chastise him for what year he’s trying to take us back to…Imperialism, Protectionism, and no women voting.

I can't think for a minute that most people in the UK think that's a good idea, much less the hosts of this dinner party.

They'll get their chance to make it for worthy guests.

Unfortunately that is the standard fare served by the royal household. The royal family are well known for having their tastes stuck in the 1950s . Sometimes they get in celebrity or notable chefs in to deliver a menu for events, but for formal stuff it's all tasteless and textureless.
