   Hmmm interesting ideas.  Every year, the Barony of Ynys Fawr hosts what
we call the Camel Feast which is Middle Eastern in style and flavour, right
down to dressing the part and sitting on the floor with rugs.  Belly
dancers and other interesting things.
   After having a Japanese persona for quite a while, before she was
tragically lost at sea, I wanted to do a Japanese feast.  Cushions on the
floor, all the Japanese cuisine etc, even to Japanese entertainment.
However after some furious researching, I found not nearly enough period
dishes that I could do.  Friends told me that I could do some fairly
modern, yet medieval looking dishes and noone would know the difference,
but that's cheating in a way. The idea's merely on hold for the duration.

Would anyone know of any nice period dishes, and some not so nice ones for
contrast =>
