Letter to myself. When you are grown up start a restaurant, near the sea, with old recipes on the menu.
- Appetizer (15 items), snacks (15), main course (15) and dessert (15); change every 3 months 5 items of the four categories
- Ancient Egyptian bread and stuffed shortbreads
- From Ancient Greece (source): Bean Soup, Albacore Tuna, Baklava, Cod with Coriander, Sea Bass with Feta, Easy Oranges with Honey and Roasted Leeks and Apple
- From Ancient Rome (source): Garum, Columella Salad, Lentils with Coriander, Roast Wild Boar, Ostrich Ragoût, Fried Veal Escalope with Raisins and Nut Tart
- A couple of the Ancient Chinese 280 recipes from 'Qimin Yaoshu'
- Yucatán Papadzules
- Old English 'The Forme of Cury' (1390): Gees in hoggepot (XXXI), Chykenns in cawdel (XXXIII) and Tartes of Fysshe (XX.VIII. X)
- Check out Wikipedia's 'List of Ancient Dishes'
- In winter - seasonal product - with fresh snow and fruit make ice
- ... - there must be more
- Check the recipes with archaeologists and chemists. Ask them to what amount of salt, pepper and sugar were used. And other herbs
- Not halal, nor kosher, nor other prohibitions - if the ingredient can be bought legally it can be served; change the law not my dishes
- Nothing vegetarian - if you don't want to eat (for whatever culturally or historically biased reason) meat, chicken, fish, cheese or ... choose another item or restaurant
- No diets. If you are not allowed to eat something for medical reasons ... choose another item or eat in a hospital
- Remake of ancient wines and beer
- Water for free
- Guests can eat with their hands, with cutlery or sticks
- Burps (modest) are allowed
- Smell bar
- Book with recipes
- Music? Listen to voice of the sea?
- Blog
- Suggestion box
- Fossils on the wall
I repeat #Change the Law not My Dishes.
