[Sca-cooks] Feast for Nithgaard (State College, PA) birthday event, Sept. 14

[Johnna Holloway]

The October 1399 Coronation feast of Henry IV is online for comparison.

Looks like an interesting challenge, given the number of dishes and complexity
of the menu. I would think pricing would be a concern as well as anticipating the
number of diners. And will the kitchen support such an endeavor?

Please keep us informed.
