High Table Policy (was Re: SC - A Winter food)

Ras,

Could you direct me to the policy you mention?  It seems reasonable, and I want to make it available to the cooks in our little section of the world here in GA.  We often makie efforts to accomodate and elevate the food served to the high table, and do not want to be in violation of SCA delineated policy.  

I have heard discussion here abouts in that vain, but those seemed more philosophical "why is their money better than mine" discussions than any published policy.  Thanks for bringing this to my attention; a growth opportunity already this morning.

pacem et bonum,

Since SCA policy currently prohibits purchasing different foods for high 
table than what are not being served to the general population, This does not 
preclude fixing the same food in a different manner though. :-) I would guess 
that the pheasant being served to high table is a donation. If so, then I 
would just go ahead and serve it as an extra treat. Many feasts have been 
ruined because of outside interference in the kitchen stewards duties. I 
would set a menu and be firm about it, personally.
