Here's an interesting commentary from non-cooks (middlebridge) relating to
what people like and dislike in a feast. Comments, anyone?

: Food recommendations:
:
: Beef Barley Barely Soup and bread: Wonderful stuff, made about 7
: years ago in what is now known as Mistig Waetru, although I'm not
sure
: if the creator is still there. It was supposed to be soup, but the
: meat cooked down, the barley absorbed a lot of water, and it was
: *wonderful* as a spread on the homemade bread.
:
: Honey butter on good bread (in the Chicago area the grocery stores
: have started carrying more fresh-baked specialty breads, if you're
not
: up to baking your own)
:
: Honeyed carrots: Baby or sliced carrots glazed with butter and
honey.
: Nummy nummy nummy, and I don't really like carrots.
:
: At Tree-Girt-Sea's Twelfth Night a couple of years ago, they did a
: "New World" feast that included some wonderful corn tamales.
:
: An orange (fruit) and red onion salad at that same feast
:
: Pasties (I've never made pasties for a feast, but I when I make them
: at home, its always a huge batch so that some get frozen, reheated,
: and never seem to suffer)
:
: Flatbread: pita, naan, and their relatives
:
:
:
: Food that flopped, in my opinion:
:
: A strange rice beverage that tasted ok, but had a grainy texture
:
: Any fish that smells "fishy"
:
: Baked stuffed onions that had not had enough of the center removed,
so
: the inner layers of onion was still pretty crunchy. That dish just
: needed some refinement, and I think it would have been really good.
:
: Garlic something-or-other with no discernable garlic flavor
