ABC News(PALM BEACH, Fla.) — President-elect Donald Trump and his family spent Thanksgiving in Palm Beach, Florida, at his opulent Mar-a-Lago Club, where the menu included “Mr. Trump’s Wedge Salad” and “Three Layer Trump Chocolate Cake.”
Trump’s transition team provided little detail about how the family is spending the holiday, but it did release a dinner menu (at bottom), consisting of salads, seafood, beef and an array of desserts.

Even though it’s a holiday, Trump tweeted, “I am working hard, even on Thanksgiving, trying to get Carrier A.C. Company to stay in the U.S. (Indiana). MAKING PROGRESS – Will know soon!”

The Trumps have used the Mar-a-Lago Club as their holiday getaway for more than two decades, though the past two years they have had to accommodate the Secret Service, as well.
With Trump still in the early stages of assembling the key members that will help him run his administration, he made clear with a tweet early Thursday that he’s having a hard time taking a breather on the holiday.
Trump is expected to hold more meetings Friday and over the weekend, though aides say he is also preparing to embark on a ‘victory tour’ potentially some time within the next week.
