To put it mildly, yes. The book is webbed at:

tents.html

"And as at such a feast there could be some very high, puissant, noble,
venerable and honorable lords and ladies who do not eat meat, for these
there must be fish, marine and fresh-water, fresh and salt, in such manner
as one can get them.

And as the sea-bream is king of the other sea fish, listed first is the
sea-bream, conger-eel, grey mullet, hake, sole, red mullet, dorade, plaice,
turbot, sea-crayfish, tuna, sturgeon, salmon, herrings, sardines,
sea-urchin, mussels, eels, boops, ray, cuttle-fish, arany marine,
anchovies, eels, both fresh and salted.

Concerning fresh-water fish: big trout, big eels, lampreys, filleted char,
fillets of big pike, fillets of big carp, big perch, ferrés, pallés,
graylings, burbot, crayfish, and all other fish."

And lots of recipes.
