CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
Executive Dining Room
The Central Intelligence Agency operates an official
representational dining room so that the Director may have
available a?suitable and secure dining facility for the
entertainment of those individuals with whom it is necessary
to consult in the discharge of his responsibilities in the
field of foreign affairs. This facility consists of a kitchen,
a small reception room, and a dining room of 292 square feet
with a capacity of seating ten guests. It is staffed by a
crew of three, which includes a chef, a waiter, and a bus boy/
dishwasher. Approximately 1,100 meals are served annually.
There is also operated, established on the base of the
facility that operates the Director's official dining room,
an "Executive Dining Room." The determination has been made
that, both because of the isolated location of the Agency
Headquarters Building as well as the need for senior Agency
officers to entertain and converse with people from both the
public and private sectors, as well as foreign nationals, with-
out being optically visible to the world at large, such a
facility is in the best interests of the United States
Government. Such a facility also allows senior Agency offi-
cers to conduct classified business discussions while having
lunch, inasmuch as the serving staff is fully security cleared.
The financial facts on the operations of both facilities
are listed separately in Tabs A and B. A combined listing
appears in Tab C.
