President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump hosted King Charles and Queen Camilla at a formal state dinner at the White House on April 28. The menu included a first course of garden herb velouté, a spring herb ravioli, and a classic Dover sole meunière. The dessert course included a chocolate gâteau with a vanilla bean crémeux custard topped with a brown butter crumble and White House honey. The evening's entertainment included performances by the United States military musicians. The dinner used china services from both the Clinton and Bush administrations to reflect the long and enduring friendship between the two countries. The day prior, the Trumps hosted the King and Queen for afternoon tea before they departed for a garden party at the British Embassy.
