Making meals of Monsters

[Drakmor]

the PCs are eating the parts of another intelligent species... dragon steaks...

Not this one, he wasted all his money on instant lottery tickets.

This sounds very much like the game I currently play in. One character - Marek - who recently retired from the party was a master chef, and a Hobbit to boot. Another character - Aknot the Part-Orc - likes to eat what he kills; thus Marek was constantly having his considerable cooking skills put to the severest of tests.

The menu has at times included:

"Man-cow steaks" (a.k.a. haunch of Minotaur, a perennial favourite)
"Calamari" (a.k.a. Mind Flayer tentacles, as noted in quote above)
"Leg (and arm, and most other parts) of Derro"
"Seasoned Kuo-toa" (apparently they taste awful if not seasoned)

One shouldn't forget Hydra Heads, which if used properly can be a renewable resource.

This is much like Troll Chitterlings.

Sauteed in shrieker caps, Nom nom!

Not sure if this qualifies; but I've a couple of down on their luck PCs paying their debts at the local organ donation facility, which supplies body parts, regional delicacies and potion components.

A few hundred yards away the rest of the split party have finally made contact with the Drow merchant they've been looking for. She lays on a fabulous and exotic meal, including a number of Drow favourites . . . very tasty liver pate, cherry glazed ribs, a pungent, blood red wine . . .

I've got a few dishes named (but no recipes) in my Random inn Generator:

Wyvern Tail in Ginger & Cinnamon
Cockatrice Liver pate and Bread
Spicy Hellhound Claws

and about 10 others, along with normal dishes.

And I'd love to add a few new dish names to the list! Great thread idea.

Just be careful with the Blue Rhino stew... always gives me gas

Deep-fried Flumph. All those tendrils would be like calamari. Mmmm.

You could look at Desolation for inspiration. All the creatures have a nutritional value
