Tea & Dinner Menu at the Baron's
Lydia Petrovna's Tea Party
The Baroness uses food to convince local Vallakian women to attend her little meetups and sew costumes and decorations for her husband’s festivals. The food at these events is simple but is more than enough to draw in enough townsfolk.
Draniki | Potato pancakes made with potato and onion, then fried. |
Baratok salad | Similar to the salad served at the Blue Water Inn, but benefiting from additional seasoning bought from the Vistani. |
Egg and cheese platter | A platter that is shared around containing slices of boiled eggs and Krezk goat cheese. Most guests are combining the cheese with the draniki. |
Rhubarb crumble | A sweet, tart, fibrous filling topped with a loose crumble made of baked oats and butter. |
Mint and blackberry tea | More like a hot minty blackberry juice than a real tea, but tasty. |
Dinner
According to the Burgomaster, all is well. The Baron clearly wishes to show that everything in Vallaki is properous, and thus brings out the best food available, despite not having much of it.
Appetizer | Shushi. (A salad made of grilled beetroots and mushrooms, garnished with crumbled cheese, served on thin slices of toasted bread.) |
Soup | Cherry Soup. (A sweet, chilled soup made with cherries and sour cream, and flavored with exotic spices.) |
Main Course | Goulash. (A hearty stew made from thick chunks of beef, onions, garlic, wine, and spices.) |
Dessert | Gooseberry Pie. (A sweet gooseberry filling cooked under a latticed pie crust.) |
