Much as I hate to take issue with the noble and learned Finnvairr ...   .

Chiquart makes it clear that he intends to serve two meals each day. The
big 16th c. German cookbook I have (admittedly, a little late for medieval)
gives lots of menus, each in the form of an early meal and a night meal, I
assume lunch and dinner.
