SM Stirling also excels, and surpasses even Poul Anderson, in loving descriptions of food:
pan-fried trout
roasted lamb with spiced sausages on saffron rice
salads
quick-fried vegetables
chocolate compote (for more images, see here)
palatable wine
Always glad to add to the ever-growing Food Thread, we look forward to more descriptions of meals in the remaining nine chapters of The Forge.

And we also see mention of the times when Raj and his soldiers had to settle for coarser military staples like beans, black bread, and salted pork.

Sean,
I will make an appropriate list when the time comes.
Paul.
Kaor, Paul!
And I'll be interested in such lists. Been a long time since I last read THE GENERAL books.
