Food and Drink in Brevoy

The people of Brevoy like their meals hearty and served hot, and their drink strong. Spice is typically imported as preservatives, and "hot" spicy foods are uncommon and not well received by the Brevic palate. In Issia, fish and shellfish make up large portions of staple foods, with caviar being a beloved delicassy. South in Rostland, grains and products from livestock (beef, pork, dairy), comprise the typical diet. Borsch is a common food throughout the land. Hunting is a proud tradition in Brevoy, with wild game being enthusiastically received at mealtimes. Other products of the wilds, including berries, nuts, mushrooms, and honey are popular additions to Brevic diet.

Alcohol fermented from grains and potatoes dominate the shelves of taverns, with vodka being a traditional favorite. Imported black tea is the favored non-alcoholic beverage, brewed in elaborate samovars, and served hot, strong, and bitter, especially during the long, cold winters.
