The occasion was a Rosh Ha Shannah reception. It was the 4th year that this event has taken place during this administration at the same venue.
The food order is on the 8x11 paper (click on the image to read it better), the cocktail napkins are from the VP kitchen.
The kitchen is staffed by Naval Enlisted Aids who are a unit of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC).
Gate resisted the temptation to eat the guests or the staff or the VP.
Also, the VP's weekly menus were posted in the kitchen. Almost no starch or sugar. Also the VP likes Diet Coke and Coke Zero in 6 ounce cans.
