https://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/restaurantsandnews/michelle-obama-writes-exceptional-thank-you-note-to-local-greek-restaurant/ar-BBHatWB?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhpA three-location fast-casual gyro chain in San Francisco, called Souvla, has a high-profile fan: Michelle Obama. In fact, she loves this place so much that she ordered it for a recent plane ride back to D.C., then afterwards wrote Souvlas staff a very nice letter saying how much the food improved her five-hour flight.
Now, granted, Obama is a dining connoisseur with few equals. (On past Bay Area trips, shes eaten private meals with Barack prepared by Alice Waters and Quinces Michael Tusk.) But Souvlas Greek fries and lamb leg mustve really called her name the day of that flight, because staff tell Eater San Francisco that her crew came in and ordered pretty much everything on the menu, which includes the spit-fired meat sandwiches, salads and sides, and frozen yogurt.
Heres the thank-you letter she sent last week, shared yesterday by Souvla, calling the in-flight meal phenomenal, and adding it made our long flight home so much more enjoyable:

On second thought, maybe WE should be writing McDonald's thank you's for feeding 45 so much crap.

He thinks they should be writing thank-you notes to him for the honor of having fed him.
After all, Trump invented the Big Mac.

that racist birther plagiarist pig currently staining the office of FLOTUS in the WH.

(But grammatically it should be "Barack and me." I'm sorry. I can't help it.)
That is one that sets my teeth on edge.
