It’s rich, orange and fiery — and it’s got a name that has everyone talking.
Yes, it’s Donald Trump but not as you know him.
A Kirribilli restaurant has named a curry after the controversial US President and it’s proving to be a hit.
Inderpreet Singh from the Grace of India came up with the idea and asked the restaurant’s apprentice to create the dish.
“It’s highly successful,” he said.
“It’s got people going from butter chicken to Donald Trump.”
Customers are veering away from their favourites to try the Donald Trump Vegetable Curry.
The feedback has been all positive and regulars are thrilled that they’ve transformed Trump’s personality into food.
“If Donald Trump was a food that’s what he’d be,” said Mr Singh.
The restaurant gave an open invitation for Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Trump to dine there to sort out their differences.
And that might not be such a far-fetched prospect.
The restaurant makes regular deliveries to nearby Kirribilli House and previous prime ministers have enjoyed its food.
“It’s probably silly that Trump is picking a fight with Australia,” Mr Singh said.
“Hopefully this curry can bring the two countries together again.
“Next time when Malcolm Turnbull and Donald Trump come to the table together we can serve them the Donald Trump Curry.
“We are happy to have them here or happy to serve them at Kirribilli House.
“And they can break naan together.”
The Mosman Daily asked Kirribilli locals what they thought about the dish.
Colin reckoned it was a good idea and said Mr Trump was welcome to visit Kirribilli as long as he “behaved himself”.
Manrish Dhingra said he wanted to try the curry and hoped it would spark interesting conversations about politics.
And Michael Penellum poised the question of the day.
“Will it make curry great again?”
