It's sad that it's virtually impossible to find medieval food like this. All "medieval" restaurants (even in Europe) I know of either serve modern food in old digs, or random barbecue as a sideshow to jousting knights and whatnot.

- thematrixturtle 5y agoYes, those are perfect examples of the kind of fake medieval I was talking about. For example, both feature roast chicken on the menu, but chicken was rarely if even eaten before the 1900s. The few that were for laying eggs, meaning they were butchered only after many years and were thus a far cry from the plump KFC type chickens we see today. (Which is also why the most famous French chicken/rooster dish, coq au vin, is designed to tenderize and extract all calories from a tough old rooster.) At least the first has a couple of authentic-ish medieval desserts though.
- Symbiote 5y agoI think you'll struggle to find anywhere that is 100% medieval, except perhaps an occasional special event at a museum. You'll also find the food of the nobility, or feast days, as it isn't much fun to eat bread and gruel.
