Barack Obama is a keen food critic too, as it has been revealed that he appeared on a local restaurant review show to talk about his favorite restaurant in the district.
The US president made his appearance at 'Check, Please!' in 2001 talking about Dixie's Kitchen and Bait Shop of Chicago, ABC News reported.
He did his part to drum up business for a restaurant in the South Side of Chicago, where he showed how to remain diplomatic while doling out culinary criticisms.
In a newly unearthed video of the show, he said that he goes to Dixie Kitchen because he is looking for food that tastes good at the right price.
Obama also said that he ordered the southern sampler just because he couldn't make up his mind what to order.
