According to the British newspaper The Guardian the staff gave a strange look when the world-famous trio appeared. The American ex-president, singer and film director then made time to take a picture with the entire staff.

Staff member Pol Perello Franch posted the photo to his Instagram account, captioning it: “The pleasure this job gives you!”
Obama and Spielberg, who are close friends, were in town to attend Springsteen’s concert Friday at the Olympic Stadium in Barcelona. Both of their wives, Michelle Obama and Kate Capshaw, were also in town. In the afternoon they visited the Basilica Sagrada Familia and the Moco Museum together. On the way, they greeted passers-by, as can be seen in photos from news agencies.
Chef Rafa Zafra said the reservation was made “just a few hours in advance.” He had been called by fellow Spanish-American chef José Andrés. “He told me it was an important company, but that I was not allowed to say anything about it. Of course I went to investigate, and then I discovered that Bruce was giving a concert and that Obama was on his way to Barcelona.”
Obama’s idea
According to Zafra, oysters, crustaceans and shellfish and caviar were served on the table in the ‘temporary star restaurant’. There was also a drink, although Springsteen in particular held back, ‘because he had to work later in the evening’.
According to the chief, guards had asked in advance if the staff would not ask for selfies. “But after dinner Obama came into the kitchen to say they had a great meal and if we wanted to take a picture with the whole group.”
Obama and Springsteen have been friends since 2008, when The Boss supported Obama in his run for president.
During the performance, former first lady Michelle Obama could also be admired on stage when she sang along in the backing choir. You can see images of it in this tweet:
