Today, guests at the banquet of the King of Great Britain, with the participation of US President Donald Trump, will enjoy three dishes from a set menu, as well as a variety of drinks, reports UNN with reference to the BBC.
Appetizer: Hampshire watercress panna cotta, Parmesan shortbread, and quail egg salad.
Main course: Norfolk organic chicken ballotine, wrapped in courgettes with thyme and a savory sauce.
Dessert: Vanilla ice cream bomb with raspberry sorbet from Kentish shortbread and lightly poached Victoria plums.
After dinner, guests will be served specially selected drinks, including a vintage 1945 port wine, which is said to be a tribute to President Trump, who was the 45th president during his first term.
Hennessy 1912 Cognac Grande Champagne, dating back to the year of Trump's mother's birth, will also be served.
For the occasion, a new cocktail, the "Transatlantic Whiskey Sour," was created – a variation of the traditional whiskey sour, combining the flavors of Johnnie Walker Black and marmalade.
The drink will be complemented by pecan foam and toasted marshmallows on star-shaped shortbread.

According to media reports, guests are already arriving, and the table is set.
The event will be attended by 160 guests, and the meal will take place at a banquet table 47.3 m (155 feet) long.
