Mexican Food Fans at the White House

by Nancy on June 29, 2010

First Lady Michelle Obama loves Mexican food. In fact she misses her favorite Mexican food restaurants in Chicago  and Michelle is on record about her love for Mexican food

“Oh, let me tell you, Mexican food is my favorite food in the whole wide world. Oh, I love tortillas. I love tamales.

“I love beans and rice. I love mole. I love all the mole sauces, I love beef and lamb and quesadillas. I mean, you name it. The question is, what don’t I like?”

“I like it all.”

A state dinner hosted by President Obama for the Mexican President and his wife featured  Mexican delicacies like:

Green herb ceviche: A raw fish( fresh catch) preparation, marinated in an acidic seasoning of garlic, serrano chiles, cilantro, parsley,spicy peppers and lime juice. The healthful omega-3 fatty acids in the fish is preserved when the fish is cured in this manner.

Oaxacan black mole: 28 ingredients go in to make this black sauce that can be used to cook chicken in, or the sauce may be served with turkey, roast pork loin, grilled or roasted beef, lamb and venison.

Former President Bill Clinton is another celebrity who loves Mexican food and where did he find his favorite  restaurant that served the best Mexican food?   The  former president traveled to San Antonio, south Texas during the early 1970s, on work for the Democrat Party where he ate with gusto at some of the restaurants.

He simply loved the food at Mi Tierra and about which  he has written,

“where I once ate three meals in 18 hours.”

The Menger Hotel near the Alamo grounds was another hot spot that President Clinton visited ever so often because he was adddicted to their mango ice-cream.

“Mango ice cream at the Menger Hotel is one of the great treasures in American life.”

Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton also admits to have developed a liking for Mexican food while campaigning at San Antonio.

“It’s where I became addicted to Mexican food and mango ice cream.”
