Dinner Menu
Dessert: For my dessert I will have a multi layered golden Oreo dream salad. This dessert is fitting for my movie and Watergate because it has many layers, and there is always more to uncover. It is fitting that the pudding part is white because just when you think everything is fixed and "clean", there was always more dirt being added to the situation (the oreos).
Drink: As my drink I will serve water because of the name Watergate.
Side: As the side I will have a grilled chicken watercress salad. I choose a watercress salad mainly because the name somewhat resembles Watergate. The char marks on the grilled chicken represents that of a jail cell because the burglars that were caught were sent to jail, but Nixon received no punishment. These salads are usually topped with a vinegary dressing that can sometimes leave a bitter taste in your mouth, much like the Watergate scandal made people feel bitter towards the government.
Main Course: As the main course I will have turkey sandwiches. Firstly this came to mind because throughout the course of the movie whenever working on research for the interviews they always eat sandwiches from the deli downstairs in the hotel. Secondly, sandwiches have many layers and there is always more to "uncover" much like the Watergate scandal.
Appetizer: As an appetizer I would serve mini sliders. In the movie Nixon calls Frost late at night and they begin their conversation by discussing cheeseburgers. Although this conversation seems relatively insignificant it should still be appreciated because it is them getting to know eachother better through a seemingly unimportant conversation. So because of both of their appreciation of cheeseburgers, mini sliders should be the appetizer.
