The owners of Engine Company Three got a big surprise when President Obama stopped at their restaurant for lunch.

They say that they've been friends with a member of President Obama's staff since his campaign. The President was meeting with some people who wanted to discuss the president's health care plan. A group of people were across the street trying to grab a glimpse of the president.

Restaurant owners say he was kind man who shook hands with everyone in the restaurant. The server said she was extremely nervous to serve the Commander in Chief. 

The owner expected to cook the dish himself, but said the president ordered a dish from another station. They say President Obama ordered a Colombian dish with fried eggs, smashed plantains, and cilantro rice.
