Macron to wine and dine Trump with blue lobster in Eiffel Tower restaurant

French President Emmanuel Macron will treat Trump to dinner at a lavish restaurant in the Eiffel Tower during the president’s visit to Paris this week, according to Monday reports. 

 

The pair are set to dine on blue lobster and caviar, among other gourmet food. 

 

The Jules Verne restaurant where they will be dining at is run by one of the top chefs in France and has become one of the city’s most famous eateries. An employee there confirmed the world leaders’ reservation to Paris Match magazine. 

 

{mosads}Some have speculated that Macron will be pulling out all the stops in hopes that Trump will reverse his stance on the Paris climate deal. 

 

At last week’s Group of 20 summit in Germany, Macron said that he would continue to try to convince Trump to change his mind about his decision to withdraw the U.S. from the agreement.

 

Trump is set to arrive in Paris on Thursday, where he will be the guest of honor at France’s Bastille Day parade on the Champs-Elysées. The dinner will take place that evening.
