Blue Duck Tavern

Blue Duck Tavern

The Obama celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary by having a romantic dinner at Blue Duck Tavern on Saturday night. It was the couple’s first wedding anniversary at the White House. While they spent the day indoors, the first couple celebrated the anniversary together at a night out on the west side of the Washington. The presidential accolade arrived at the Blue Duck Tavern restaurant at 7.40 p.m. The first lady was wearing a knee length black dress with a black clutch in her hands while Mr. President sported his signature style that is a black suit with no tie.

The couple’s choice for Blue Duck Tavern is quite understandable provided the fact that Michelle is ‘promoting fresh food’. Blue Duck Tavern which boasts of its food as ‘wholesome American fare prepared through simple, time-honored cooking methods such as roasting, braising, preserving and smoking’ is comparable to Blue Hill – the Greenwich Village Restaurant where Obama had supper during their New York night out. The couple left the restaurant at 9.14 p.m.

While President Obama is busy resolving national issues, he’s proving time and again that he’s a very attentive husband. Obama often take out time for each other. Their most recent ‘couple time’ was a dinner during the visit to Czech Republic and a New York night out. Commenting about their romantic relationship, Michelle Obama once told People’s magazine, ‘Our romantic [time] is almost every Saturday night or Friday night, if he’s home. We spend the day with the girls doing girls’ stuff and that’s a family. Then we have date night, and the girls like it.’ The couple got married on October 3, 1992 in Chicago. Mr. Obama proposed Michelle over a desert.
