President Donald Trump, despite his wealth, isn’t exactly known for his refined palette.

But Thursday’s state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping will be an elegant affair, and a far cry from the 47th president’s notorious McDonald’s order of two Big Macs, two Filet-O-Fish sandwiches and a large chocolate shake. The swanky event will be quite the opposite.

Conspicuously missing from the menu, however, is an American dining staple — red meat. 

In fact, no meat will be served at all. Instead, the dinner is exclusively a pescatarian affair.

The menu for the event, provided to Fox News Digital by First Lady Melania Trump’s office, says the first course consists of yellow squash velouté, wild mushroom fricassée, crispy pancetta and scallion oil.

“The first course offers a refined and silky-smooth velouté made of sweet yellow squash,” the menu states. “This course is gently blended to highlight its delicate seasonal flavors of earthy wild mushrooms, sautéed with fresh herbs. Together, these ingredients create a rich fricassee, complemented by crispy pancetta for a savory and smoky contrast. A finishing drizzle of scallion oil adds vibrance and a subtle allium brightness to the dish.”

Served next is a sesame crusted sea bass with braised bok choi, roasted garden eggplant and a French green herb sauce.

“The second course is prepared delicately with fresh seabass and coated in toasted sesame seeds,” according to the menu.

“This combination creates a fragrant nutty crust while keeping the fish tender. The fish is served with crisp baby bok choy and roasted garden eggplant, creating lightly caramelized flavors. The dish is finished with a vibrant sauce verte of fresh herbs, which add brightness, acidity, and a garden character.”

The two heads of state and their guests will enjoy vanilla crémeux and White House honey iced cream, walnut frangipane and sour cherry confit for their final course.

“The dessert course is a smooth vanilla crémeux with a vibrant sour cherry confit center, set a top a rich walnut frangipane,” the menu says. “The dessert’s fruit shaped form is complimented by a delicate ice cream made with harvested White House honey.”

“The décor for the evening is an expression of warmth and celebration and draws on the color red’s longstanding cultural significance throughout Chinese history,” the First Lady’s memo says, and will feature “urns overflowing with red blossoms and tables covered by red linen with dahlias and ranunculus.”

After the dinner, both presidents are expected to retire for the evening.
