Il Mulino (Greenwich Village)
Back in 2009, Obama joined Bill Clinton for a power lunch at this upmarket Italian chain. Clinton told the press, “We had fish, pasta, and salad. Even I was healthy,” reported The New York Times. One of its signature dishes, the capellini Il Mulino pasta comes with wild mushrooms, pancetta, vodka cream sauce, and black truffle. “This is one of those ridiculous things in this world that probably shouldn’t exist. Like fried Oreos,” wrote Chris Stang of The Infatuation.
