US President Donald Trump hosted an elegant White House dinner in honor of Chinese President Xi Jinping, gathering a guest list heavily drawn from the technology sector. The formal event in the East Room showcased a softer side of diplomacy, featuring dim lighting, striking red and gold table settings, and historic Reagan-era porcelain. President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump, both sporting tuxedo-inspired looks, warmly welcomed President Xi and his wife Peng Liyuan before the meal. The evening’s carefully curated menu treated guests to yellow squash velouté, sesame-coated sea bass served with bok choy, and a vanilla cremeux dessert.
