Ulysses S. Grant

Ulysses S. Grant loves one dessert over all others, which was freshly made Rice Pudding. 
It's been said that he had it on all state dinner menus. 

The only other thing that was a constant in Grant's life was his love of a good cigar. The term lobbying came about because if you wanted to speak to Grant to gain favor, you'd have to go find him in the lobby of the  Willard Hotel, located at 1401 Pennsylvania Ave which is right across the street from the White House, where he could be found daily grabbing a cigar and sipping on a glass of whiskey. He was a creature of habit for sure.
