The best A&S display of food I've seen was a lady a Gothic Wars a couple of
years ago.  Her display was of a Roman meal.  She had the original recipes,
the redactions, the food, wine, and most importantly she was on hand and fed
the judges the meal in the order it should be presented.  Not only had she made
the food but also vinted the wines.  Her hands-on approach in letting the judges
experience a light meal as it should be properly appreciated is what really 
scored.  It was the first time I had seen a purely food entry win an A&S.
