Let them eat butter

More to the point, try and stop them. They sure love their perks, eh?

ABC's Yunji de Nies keeps tabs on the Obamas' posh vacation:

President Obama and the first lady enjoyed a night out with friends, with a leisurely three-hour dinner at Alan Wong’s Restaurant. The upscale eatery specializes in Hawaiian Regional Cuisine and is a favorite of the first couple.

Two years ago, Wong traveled to Washington to prepare a luau at the White House Congressional picnic. The Obamas regularly dine at the Honolulu restaurant while on vacation and on Wednesday night sat at their usual table, with the president seated with his back to the wall – in what Wong has described as the “Feng Shui” seat in the restaurant.

The group ordered off of a special tasting menu, though no word on what that entailed.
Keith Koffler speculates on the menu, but the word on Twitter is that they're, well, eating butter. Yeah. You can't make this stuff up.

I'll update when I get all the greasy details. Meanwhile, FORE!

  1. My guess is that it takes practice to eat a slab of butter.

    Maybe the Obamas like to eat their lettuce sautéd.
