Barack Obama to select White House Chef

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Barack Obama must name his White House chef Among Barack Obama's many important appointments to office is not actually whether Hillary Clinton will be Secretary of State but who will be named as the new White House chef.

According to the New York Daily News, it seems that there are three chaps in the running to cook for the US President Elect. 

Celebrity chat show host and flagrant Obama supporter Oprah Winfrey's former personal cook and Chicago restaurateur Art Smith is the front runner, as well as another Windy City chef Rick Bayless, who owns two Mexican restaurants in Obama's hometown. Denver-based chef Daniel Young, is the final candidate, who it seems was wrongly rumoured to have cooked for Obama at the Democratic National Convention.

At least whoever gets the gig will be able to be a little more creative than Dubya's chef, who allegedly spent eight years refining the BLT and white bread grilled cheese sarnies and burgers.
