Bringing some taste to this often contentious election, Legal Sea Foods has created two presidential dishes that will have voters happily reaching across the aisle (or the dinner table) to sample the "Trump Tower" or the "Secretary of Steak."

From October 24 to November 6, all Legal Sea Foods restaurants (MA, RI, NJ, PA, DC, VA, GA) will offer"Blue Plate" and "Red Plate" specials that pay homage to the two presidential contenders. Legal is confident that both dishes will appeal to voters, and represent the best that either party can dish out.

The Red Plate, the "Trump Tower," isn't shy about its size. This 'yuge' two-tiered plateau feeds any grand old party. Scallop mango ceviche, king crab, marinated mussels, shrimp cocktail, oysters and littlenecks on the half shell make dinner great again. It's priced at $55.95 and serves 4-6 people.

The Blue Plate, the "Secretary of Steak," offers a liberal helping of blackened tuna steak with jasmine rice, bacon-braised Brussels sprouts and blackberry beurre rouge. It didn't take a village to create this delicious dish, just a great chef. It's priced at $31.95.

"I refuse to pick sides or even main courses so we're letting our guests decide," said Legal Sea Foods President & CEO Roger Berkowitz. "I don't care where you stand on the candidates, but I want you to sit down at Legal Sea Foods and order one or both of these d-electable dishes. By doing so, your voice will be heard, literally, by our wait staff. And you'll be doing your part to help the economy."

The restaurant group will count "votes" by tracking how often each menu item is ordered, and this poll will be used to predict the winner of the race. Legal Sea Foods' extensive election coverage for these promotional dishes will be aired exclusively on its Facebook page and Twitter feed.
