What special foods does the British royal family use when hosting foreign leaders?

Four meals a day emphasize freshness------Darren McGrady, the former chef of Buckingham Palace, recently revealed to the media the menu of Queen Elizabeth II-the queen eats four meals a day: breakfast, lunch , afternoon tea and dinner. Moreover, the menu at Buckingham Palace has basically remained the same for 60 years, with only "fine adjustments" and no "major changes". The Queen attaches great importance to "seasonal" and "seasonal", and she especially likes strawberries grown in her own garden. At Buckingham Palace, the Queen's breakfast is simply oat milk with a handful of nuts or prunes. Or have hard-boiled eggs and bread with jam. Of course, Darjeeling black tea is the Queen’s favorite and she has a cup every morning.

The royal family loves eggs the most - "Dinner at Buckingham Palace" records that eggs are the British royal family's favorite delicacy: all the princesses and princes in the royal family can't live without eggs - —Eat at least two egg brioches every day. Her Majesty the Queen prefers brown eggs, and she also likes the Rothschild soufflé produced by French gourmet Calemme. Queen Victoria's favorite thing in her life was the simplest boiled eggs, but they must be eaten in a golden egg cup with a golden spoon.

One in ten fruits------It is reported that the Queen loves garden parties and picnics. In time for the Queen's luncheon at Windsor Castle, a professional team had to transport 200 fresh pears from London to Windsor Castle early in the morning. Does the Queen have to eat 200 pears at lunch? of course not! Instead, the 24 most beautiful ones will be selected from these 200 to be enjoyed by the VIP guests who come to attend the Queen's garden party or luncheon.

No wonder some British media ridiculed, "As a British pear, my ultimate dream in life is to be selected as the luncheon fruit and be enjoyed by the Queen."

The above are some special foods! Of course, these are not enough, but they are still very representative!
