Celebrating the history of food and cuisine. All are invited to add to the feast. (please mind your manners) (eructations are applauded or forgiven whatever the cultural norms may be)
Those truffles too are no bad accessaries,
Follow'd by 'petits puits d'amour'—a dish
Of which perhaps the cookery rather varies,
So every one may dress it to his wish,
According to the best of dictionaries,
Which encyclopedize both flesh and fish;
But even sans 'confitures,' it no less true is,
There 's pretty picking in those 'petits puits.'
Byron
Don Juan Canto 15
