Obama girls hit London: Fish, chips, and Potter
Malia, Sasha and mom visited set of new movie, Parliament, and Big Ben
An evening meal of fish and chips at a pub rounded off an eventful day in London for First Daughters Malia and Sasha Obama.
The youngsters — ages 10 and 7 — dined with mom Michelle Obama at The Audley on Mount Street in Mayfair on Monday evening in a move that caught bar managers by surprise.
The children chose the fish supper while their mother opted for sirloin steak, say the pub's owners, Punch Pub Company.
"We were all speechless when they walked in," said Cintia Pinto, 24, who served the first lady's table. "I couldn't believe it. But they were all very friendly, smiling and laughing.
"They made us feel calm. The girls were so sweet and polite. They thanked us every time we brought them something. It was a real honor."
The group dined in the pub's private dining room upstairs, managers say, and before long a crowd gathered outside, clamoring for a view of the special visitors.
"We've had other famous people coming in," manager John Gohery said, "but nothing on this scale."

Here’s a deal for you. Keep them, and we will pay you.......
What? No curry?
Why don’t we leave out the vitriol towards the children? Save it for BO. He deserves it.
What an education. Can you imagine how the kids will relate to the study of England now that they have been. Also Paris...when they study Paris they will have a clear picture of what they are studying. Great opportunity. My kids have also been to Paris, London, Amsterdam, Munich, Rome, Salzburg, and many other places. It is a smart idea to have your kids travel as much as they can. It really makes the kids much more knowledgable in history and can relate to other areas of study too.
"For the first time in my life I'm proud of fried fish."
This is the kind of stuff I want them to do,too!
If you don’t scratch the surface, it’s a great story!
When it comes to making policy, well, leave that to the grown ups. (If you can find any left in DC)
I'm just venting, I agree with you.
Did the gracious and beautiful first lady leave the ga-ga 24 year old waitress a tip? Or did she stiff the girl like the klintoons always did?
By the way, I didn’t mean all that gracious and beautiful stuff.
Taxpayer $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Then by that reasoning the Obama kids should study American History and realize that their father’s policies are in direct opposition to almost 250 years of freedom and personal liberty.
YOU have to do without, Comrade. All animals are equal. Some are more equal than others.
Animal Farm didn’t lie.
Yikes! She looks like that salt monster from the first Star Trek episode “The Man Trap.”
And there are children starving in this country wondering where their next meal is coming from due to their commie daddy, while these two spoiled little girls are using out money to have a ball..To bad the people that voted for this bunch can’t read if they could they would see how our money is being spent..A never ending Holiday for the Obama’s
