Well, it's not vegan, but close enough compared to other dinners there.
From AP:
"Mrs. Obama brought in award-winning chef Marcus Samuelsson of Aquavit, a Scandinavian restaurant in New York City, to help White House executive chef Cristeta Comerford and her staff prepare the largely vegetarian meal. Singh is a vegetarian.
The menu included potato and eggplant salad, arugula from the White House garden, red lentil soup and roasted potato dumplings or green curry prawns. Pumpkin was served, too, with dinner falling two days before Thanksgiving. Pumpkin pie tart and pear tatin with whipped cream and caramel sauce made up the dessert; the pears were poached in honey from the White House beehive."
So ... if the White House can do it for 300+ guests, why can't restaurants and other food service locations?
