SC - qatâif project delayed

[H B]

I always wanted to do a roman event based on a gladiatorial holiday - with the
food being presented as a dayboard rather than a sit down[lie down?] evening
feast. Each type of food would be at a different basket vendor or booth, and at
troll you'd get a certain number of coins to trade for the foods [the coins
denominations would be a picture of the food type they are to be traded for, like
an animal for a meat dish like lucanian sausage, or pernam ham, a cheese for
cheese and olives, a loaf of bread for bread and so on.]

Maybe a very limited booth, sort of like the way the italian ice vendor only has
ices - we could do medieval finger foods-the crysps, pieces of bread, cheese and
sausage, small tarts [both meat, white and dessert/fruit] and the like - maybe a
total of 10 items?
