What oatcakes? I didn't get any oakcakes!   I didn't see any recipes true 
for any of the items that were served. However, the venison pie and the 
meat stew certainly were closer to period than many events I attend in 
Ansteorra. The cherry tart and cucumber salad I don't know. Green beans, 
ahh well. Roast beef was mainly eaten by the lower classes in the 15th 
century England according to my research. But, look, what I really meant 
to say was there was little that was blantantly not period. Too often I 
am served barbeque with sauce and corn here. This feast stood out as at 
least an attempt at not being blatantly non-period.
