The White House mess will open for in-person dining for the first time in President Biden’s White House on March 6, according to an internal email viewed by Axios.The wood-paneled room with a nautical theme has been closed since the winter of 2020 under COVID restrictions, and its re-opening is the latest sign of the White House's embrace of a post-pandemic world.
The dining room has been closed for three years, with only the take-out window open, depriving top officials of the simple pleasure of cutting through crispy chicken tenders on White House china.Casually called the "Navy mess" by those with access, it's run by Navy personnel and includes standard American fare.Yesterday, in a nod to Mardi Gras, creole corn chowder and "ragin’ cajun gumbo" were offered.
