White house menus

I did a quick look on the whitehouse.gov site for menus and recipes for the current administration and found... jack. A menu from 7/2002 and that was all unless we went into Laura's pages.

You probably want to look up senate.gov or .org Senate Bean Soup is great.
I'm not sure Bush Jr. and Laura are big on cooking, although Texas chili & beef BBQ might be on the
list. Certainly not as huge as meals from Jefferson's era (fried chicken with gravy, baked pumpkin,
macaroni & cheese).

Lyndon Johnson fired the French chef hired by the Kennedys.

She never claimed to be a cook, did she? Besides, I like baked potato soup. But I'll bet mine tastes
better! ;-)

Not at all what I am looking for. Look at this for example:
<url:http://www.whitehouse.gov/statevisit/menu.html>
Where can I find more menus like this and the recipes for the items?

Lovely menu. Have you tried just searching for recipes for similar items? Forget about it being an
official 'head of state' dinner. I found a recipe for striped bass with lemon and white wine at
cooks.com which looks promising:
3 lb. stripe bass, cleaned with head removed 2 tbsp. lemon juice 3 oz. Chablis wine 3 oz.
Seltzer water
1/2 tsp. celery powder
2/8 tsp. black pepper Salt to taste 1 1/2 oz. corn oil
3/4 tsp. marjoram spice
4/2 tsp. garlic powder Preheat oven 375 degrees. Use pan large enough to hold fish and line it with
aluminum foil. Place fish on top of the foil and make a border around edges with the foil to
confine the fish. Place all the ingredients on top of the fish. Bake for 50-55 minutes. Remove and
serve. Makes 4-6 servings.
Beef filet is fairly common, as are a myriad of methods for smoking one. I would have to say patting
lots of freshly ground pepper into the filet prior to smoking would make a "Pepper Smoked Beef
Filet". Corn polenta is also very common, as are grilled mushrooms with summer vegetables.
Again, recipes abound; try not to limit yourself to looking for recipes for what they prepared for a
"State" dinner.

You might not find it on the current White House site (which has had very few state dinners,
incidentally), but you can try to give a call to a DC restaurant like Palena (202.537.9250), which
is run by former WH chef Frank Ruta, and see if he'd give info about some of his previous
endeavours.

<paranoid on> Great! Now that we've all gone and checked out these sites, the SS is going to be
watching RFC now. Everybody watch your P&Qs now! <paranoid off>
Ok, rather lame attempt at humor but I tried...
