U. S. President Joe Biden, a devout Catholic, attended Mass with his family. At the exit of the church the Argentine connection took place.

Daniela Moreira from Córdoba, Argentina, moved to the United States 10 years ago and presently employs 150 people in a pizza shop and in four branches of her deli, Call Your Mother. At one of these shops, the staff had to fill an order for a VIP client: U. S. President Joe Biden.

Biden, the second Catholic president of the United States after John F. Kennedy, stopped to pick up an order of bagels — cream cheese and vegetables — from the Georgetown branch of Call Your Mother, near the church where he had just attended Mass.

"Apparently it was the granddaughter, a client of Call Your Mother who really likes it and suggested it," Moreira told House Radio.* Biden was accompanied by his son Hunter and two granddaughters.

Barely a week had passed since Biden's inauguration when a caravan of armored cars — black and shiny — pulled up to the Georgetown location. "The secret service got out first, and the one who got out to pick up the order was Hunter Biden," Moreira said in reference to the presidential son.*

Moreira commented that in just five minutes there was a crowd "stacked" at the front door, and that the staff were especially careful with each order they completed, just in case one ended up on the White House breakfast table.

"Living in D.C., one never knows how powerful the person next to you is," Moreira acknowledged, before commenting that the illustrious customers "left 90% or 95% tips" for the order, when the custom in the U.S. is 20%.*

Just a month later, the Córdoban deli story is still pleasant, compared to the other news from the White House: Biden ordered the first military airstrike of his administration, which left 22 combatants dead in an area of northeastern Syria, on the border with Iraq.

El presidente de los Estados Unidos, Joe Biden, es un devoto católico y fue a misa con su familia. A la salida de la iglesia se produjo la conexión argentina.

Daniela Moreira, de Córdoba, se mudó a Estados Unidos hace 10 años y al día de la fecha emplea a 150 personas distribuidas en una pizzería y cuatro sucursales de su deli, "Call Your Mother". En una de esas tiendas se despachó un pedido para un cliente VIP: el presidente Joe Biden.

Biden, el segundo presidente católico de los Estados Unidos después de John F. Kennedy, paró para recoger un pedido de bagels como queso crema y verduras de la sucursal de "Call Your Mother" en Georgetown, cerca de la iglesia donde acababa de ir a misa.

"Al parecer fue que la nieta fue cliente de 'Call Your Mother' y le gusta demasiado y lo sugirió", contó Moreira al sitio House Radio. Biden estaba acompañado por su hijo, Hunter, y por dos nietas.

Había pasado apenas una semana desde la asunción de Biden cuando una caravana de autos blindados (negros, relucientes) se detuvo frenet al local de Georgetown. "Se bajó el servicio secreto primero y el que se bajó a buscar la orden fue Hunter Biden", contó Moreira en referencia al hijo presidencial.

Moreira comentó que en sólo cinco minutos hubo multitud "apilada" en la puerta del local, y que el personal se puso particularmente detallista con cada pedido que tenían que despachar por si acaso alguno terminaba en la mesa de desayuno de la Casa Blanca.

"Viviendo en DC uno nunca sabe qué tan poderosa es la persona que tenés al lado", reconoció Moreira, antes de comentar que los ilustres clientes "dejaron el 90 o 95% de propina" por el pedido cuando la costumbre en el país es de 20%.

Apenas un mes más tarde la anécdota del deli cordobés queda simpática al lado de las otras novedades de la Casa Blanca: Joe Biden ordenó el primer ataque militar aéreo de su gestión que dejó 22 combatientes muertos en una zona del noreste de Siria, en la frontera con Irak.
