...Washington's celebrity-packed Sans Souci restaurant, he often takes friends to dine at a modest Chinese restaurant, where his patronage is proudly noted on the menu. When he goes to Paris, he likes to bring back silk scarves to give to friends. The less visible Kissinger takes delight in his two children (he was divorced from his wife in 1964) and in other people's children...
