Table Fifity-Two: The President's Valentine's Day Dinner Destination
Like many other couples, the President and First Lady went out to dinner on Valentine's Day. The pair dined at a Chicago restaurant which is owned by Oprah's former personal chef, Art Smith. Table Fifty-Two specializes in high-end versions of classic southern food like shrimp and grits, crab cakes, pan-seared catfish, jambalaya with sides of macaroni and cheese and collard greens. According to the Chicago Tribune, Smith, who was Oprah Winfrey's chef for ten years, greeted the couple and whisked them away to a private dining room. The dinner destination apparently surprised some local foodies who were guessing that the Obamas might end up at Spiaggia for Italian food or at Topolobampo for Rick Bayless's Mexican/Southwestern fare.Table Fifity-Two is known for its generous portions, is Mrs. Obama toting home the leftovers in the picture above?

Is that what all the ruckus was? I live around the corner and Saturday night was very busy but I didn't really notice the Secret Service in the mix--guess that means they're doing their job well. I don't really like the restaurant though.

All the beauty in the world doesn't mean a thing when the heart and mind of a person is pure ugly,like you William.Mrs.Obama is lovely inside and out.

Valerie is right, there's really no reason for saying such mean things. None of us know her, but I imagine MO is a fine person. Her looks may not be for you but it's not really polite or nice to make such mean comments.
