No. But this was my first feast (18+ years ago) I had a pretty good knowledge 
of what  NOT to serve but little knowledge about what to serve. My recipe 
sources were also limited. That is why I just did the 'bring the game' thing. 
When the snake showed up, it was a matter of not looking a gift horse in the 
mouth. 

While most SCA cooks that I knew were careful to at least make their feasts 
appear period  back then, there was often very little thought given to 
whether any given item was really period. Thankfully that is changing in the 
Current Middle Ages.
