Barack Obama Dined At Ayesha Curry’s San Francisco Restaurant On President’s Day
Last night, former President Barack Obama dined at Ayesha Curry’s restaurant.
The 44th President of the United States celebrated President’s Day in San Francisco at chef Michael Mina and Curry’s restaurant International Smoke.
Today, Mina shared a photo from the dinner of himself with Golden State Warrior Stephen Curry, his wife Ayesha Curry, and Obama on Instagram. “No greater privilege than to cook for this man on Presidents’ Day,” the chef wrote. “Thank you for the highest honor @barackobama!”
Apparently, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend were in attendance too. Teigen shared a video from the dinner on her Instagram story and a gif of her and Mina on Twitter, this morning.
