Screenshot of a picture of a dinner plate from mar a lago posted on Twitter. The food is both expensive and carelessly assembled. The main feature is a shelled lobster claw flaccidly drooped across the center of the plate. The wrist of the lobster claw is elevated on something, maybe a scallop or a lobster tail? There is some sort of cream sauce or foam topping. Next to it is a green quenelle with an unusual texture. It is chunky. Above it is a salad of some sort. Frisee? There are 9 peas crookedly arranged in a semicircle going from about 11 o'clock to 7. Beneath the peas and lobster there is a thinly sliced white circle, guessing potato.
