I read about that stuck up snob that got fired. He didnt want to cook what the Bushs wanted. How crazy can he be!!??? I hope your friend gets that job!!!!!!!!! Its funny, I LOVE BBQ and spice. Maybe we can go to the White House to eat????

I can't remember the last Chef's name but that guy made an awesome replica of the White House! I think the theme was First Pets! After that was a American Story Books.

I clicked on the link, and the website wanted me to log in. Oh well.

Back in '97, when I started college, one of my instructor's best friends was the pastry chef at the White House. I remember seeing a magazine article with a picture of that chef,and a chocolate sculpture he had made of an American Bald Eagle using dark chocolate for the body, and white chocolate for the head and tail. It was great. I don't know if that same chef is in that position nowadays or not.

The pastry chef that just left is named Roland Mesnier--is that who you're thinking of? If I recall, he'd been there for 3-4 presidents.

That might be. Is he Swiss?

French, actually.

Here's a bio. Apparently the White House doesn't update their website too frequently!
