There may well be an illumination of a feast that shows mortrewes being
served, except there usually aren't captions detailling what the dishes on
the table are. Frequently we see dishes full of "something" being presented
with great ceremony, and diners, holding chunks of "something else", digging
right in. It's often anybody's guess what these items are. But I'll keep
looking.
