San Francisco, Jan 18 : Robert Dorsey, an San Francisco Bay Area-based chef who is catering the dinner on US President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris’ Inauguration Day, has incorporated the latter’s favourite dish as part of the entree.
Dorsey is serving Harris’ favourite dish, the seafood gumbo, which is a soup that primarily consists a strongly-flavoured stock, meat or shellfish, a thickener, along with celery, bell peppers and onions.
Gumbo is the official state cuisine of Louisiana.
According to the chef, he and the Vice President-elect attended the Thousand Oaks Elementary school in Berkeley and had the same first grade teacher, Frances Wilson, ABC7 News reported on Sunday.
“I had Mrs. Wilson for the first and second grade so I had the luxury of having her two years,” Dorsey, also the owner of Robert Dorsey Catering and Events, was quoted as saying in the ABC7 News report.
“It wasn’t until five or six years ago that I realised that Vice President-elect also had Mrs. Wilson as a teacher. Prior to learning this, Mrs. Wilson had been one of the instrumental individuals of my life.
