King Charles served food course he hates at state dinner as Melania's bespoke menu revealed
Key Points:
- King Charles completed his state visit to the US with a successful White House state dinner, where he emphasized NATO support, democracy, and Ukraine in his speech.
- Former royal chef Darren McGrady revealed that while the King enjoys cheese, honey, grilled vegetables, risottos, and lamb, the state dinner menu lacked many of his favorite dishes.
- The dessert, a beehive-shaped chocolate gâteau, was not to King Charles' taste as he is not a fan of chocolate, though it likely pleased Queen Camilla, who enjoys chocolate desserts.
- The dinner menu featured a hearts of palm salad, spring herb ravioli, Dover sole meunière, and the chocolate gâteau dessert, with ingredients highlighting local produce from the White House Kitchen Garden.
- Despite the chocolate dessert, King Charles remained in good spirits, making light-hearted remarks about historical British-American relations during the event.
