When you're the president of the United States, only the best pizza will do - even if that means flying a chef 860 miles.
Chris Sommers, 33, jetted into Washington from St Louis, Missouri, on Thursday with a suitcase of dough, cheese and pans to to prepare food for the Obamas and their staff.
He had apparently been handpicked after the President had tasted his pizzas on the campaign trail last autumn.
'It's surreal, it's a huge honour,' said Mr Sommers, who owns Pi restaurant in St Louis.
'It will be a casual lunch and hopefully we'll have a chance to say hello to the president.'
Mr Somers was accompanied by this business parnter Ryan Mangilardo who will help prepare the dinner for 140 this evening.
It will feature his signature dishes - ten deep dish and ten thin crust creations.
He is also planning a pizza especially for the president - the Hyde Park topped with chicken and hot sauce.

I sent the link to Drudge, K. Lopez at NRO, Instapundit, and Ed Morissey at Hot Air.
It just went up at NRO’s The Corner.
I am sure you are right, but...
I must confess that I find a fist in their face far more satisfying.
The article leaves out two key details:
1. How much it cost.
2. Who paid for it.
If that guy got more than his plane ticket and normal caterer charges for this, Republicans should boycott his pizza house.
exactly, i bet it aint cheap and a freeloader like Obama never pays for anything.
This must be the pie Obama talked about.......
D’oh!
You don’t think that the Democrats would be “flying this in the face”? They would be smearing this all over the headlines; “BUSH FLIES IN PIZZA FROM 860 MILES AWAY FOR SELFISH WHIM, WHILE MILLIONS OF AMERICAN’S LOSE JOBS, SOLDIERS DIE AND BABIES STARVE! (Details at 6:00 Pm E.T.)
That will never happen. No matter how bad the "crisis" there will always be one rule for you, and another for the elites.
D’Obama...
Yes, honest/negative, tomato/toma(h)to.
yes but Obamabots are stupid, you have to put the idea into their head and let it wriggle about for months before the lightbulb switches on. When you throw it in their face, they get dumbass on you and shut off all avenues by covering their ears going la la la la.
What does a Kenyan know about pizza anyway.....
Hey, He won.
I’m betting there’s no pork on those pizza’s.
Fun. Just two days ago I wrote the following in response to another thread on another matter:
“There is the possibility they will cause their own “Let them eat cake” moment in history.”
Perhaps this incident would be that moment should it ever get out to the American public.
That’s what I like about Obama... he leads by example. AlGore would be proud of his conservation of the precious natural resources and his own personal effort to fight global warming.
What do you expect from a Muzzie in Hiding. He hates both Christians and Jews. Look at what this Douchebag sent to the pope to be his Ambassadors, Three pro Abortionists. Do you think he would have sent a Jew to be a ambassador to Iran or Saudi Arabia?
