in this thread, let's talk about food and drink available in tyour settings.
Any particular ones stand out? Need ideas for some new ones, come and share here.
I'm currently dabbling a little on my campaign during it's break to flesh out more of the world, including the thread topic, my main source of inspiration for the food is the James Townsend and Son 18th century cooking channel on youtube (which is a relatively closer approximation of the in-universe era) and mostly, I'm figuring out fantastic drinks.
Thus far I have ideas for a 'sparkling elven wine' that literally sparkles, a wood elf mead that causes nostalgia in imbibers who fail the wisdom throw, and a Drow Spider Venom Wine that has to be made with a different kind of spider due to the setting being on a new continent.
I suppose I might as well post one of the ideas I've come up with for spirits in my setting.
>Dragonsrock Drow Mead: This (in)famous mead is a popular ‘dare’ drink fermented with nightshade flowers. It’s bitterness almost overwhelms the otherwise fruity and berry accents, and those almost overwhelm the sensation of your liver failing. (Constitution DC 12) avg. Price: 7sp and 5cp a bottle
>Amaranthine High Moon: Sparkling white wine, rich, sweet, apricot flavor. The bubbles (not the wine itself though) glow with a soft, white light. Avg. Price: 1gp and 8sp a bottle
>(Colonial) Drow Spider Venom Wine: The current Spider Venom Wine is made from milking the poison from Spider-Crabs found along the northern, rocky shores of Dragonsrock and Northarbor. Those who have had the vintage variety complain it’s just not the same. (Con DC 14) Avg. Price: 3gp a bottle.

Anyone ever came up with recipes out of nowhere?

What would be some ideas foe Ulthuan cuisine? I know they are based on the greeks so I expected salted sardines and smelt for commoners and roasted lobster on the high end of seafood

Plenty of times. It's called lining in the dorms. Necessity is mother of invention.

Cheese, dark greens, lamb, and chicken are popular parts of greek cuisine, aren't they?
I'm planning on serving genuine Soya Slurpees in a Shadow Run game. Moreover, as a kind of cute way to set it up, I'm planning on having a character who runs a food cart just show up after runs and offer food for stories. So it gives players a chance to reflect on what we did and me a chance to encourage it by dangling food in front of them.

What would be the best way to determine which animal goes with which cheese? For example what would i pair a dragon with? What goes with a cockatrice? Does a chimera count as a goat?
