THE QUEEN'S MENU--Donald Trump dined on a menu of Windsor lamb and strawberry sable. The First Family were treated to steamed fillet of halibut with watercress mousse, asparagus spears and chervil sauce; followed by saddle of new season Windsor lamb, with herb stuffing, spring vegetables and port sauce. The menu was chosen from four possible alternatives presented to the Queen by royal chefs.Preparations in the kitchens of Buckingham Palace begin as close to the event as possible - with every dish handmade from scratch. Mr Trump is known to have a sweet tooth so likely enjoyed the pudding - strawberry sable with lemon verbena cream - made of crisp biscuits, smooth pastry cream and fresh strawberries.
Twenty three elaborate floral displays of dark pink peonies, lilac stocks and pale pink roses adorned the tables, along with large seven-branch state candelabrum and the elaborate soup tureen which was once used to serve George IV his favourite turtle soup.
That is very beautiful! I like the wavy stripes.
I’ve made the ubiquitous (and easy) Flag Sheet Cake, but that pie is actually Art :-)
