In my book club we have this tradition that we randomly get assigned classic novels and have to throw a small party for the rest based on the book we've gotten. I picked Moby Dick this yearAny cool ideas for thematic food and drinks I could serve on my Moby Dick bankquet ? :) thanks

>>22052782hmm... depends on what you can get your hands on i guess
>Book Club>Moby DickI hope your 4th grade summer reading program goes well, anon. As far as the food...
Don't they eat some kind of chowders early in the book? Maybe you could make that?
>>22052782Anything mariner related. There's marinara sauce and freselle (Neapolitan/southern Italian hard tack). There's caponata Napoletana and there are Genoese versions cappon magro etc. Those are classics but you can go look for actual mariners recipes wherever you live and give them an update. Chances are a good restaurant near you already did that.You can dig through history and make an original ceviche (llibre de Sent Sovi, 1300s Spain). There's all sorts of stuff you can do with a bisque (for the drinking part). Or you can do something with spirulina, which is basically just plankton, stuff whales eat. It's healthy and veggie, the whales in your book club will love it.

>>22052859tht sounds wonderful anon, what a brilliant idea - what the whales eat - never crossed my mind but it's so obvious... I was also thinking ceviche as a starter. might go for some rum cocktails for drinks
>Gaijin not saying itTypical Gaijin.
>>22052782Whale shaped cake, maybe you can add to it by making “harpoons” out of string and toothpicks. Could try pairing with a fruit “boat” using half a watermelon shell filled with fruit and with a sail made with a wood chopstick and some paper
>>22052783>Hard tack
>>22052782Weevils
>>22052782Naval oranges

>>22052814yeah definitely clam and cod chowder, 3x a day. also, whale steaks, whale liver, whale brainslink to recipe taken from a period cookbookhttps://chasingflukes.com/reading_guide-overview/glossary-contents/15try-pots-clam-chowder/rare steak was also mentioned early in the book too i think"applied his attention to beefsteaks, done rare.”"dont forget some rum and ale
>>22052782Should I join a book club? Would it be weird for a 25 year old single man joining one? I love reading your one sounds cool
>>22052782Hey assholehow about fish?
>>22052782>we randomly get assigned >I picked More DickIs it random or did you pick?
>>22052782clam and cod chowders are the first things eaten in Mody Dick if I recall. And they're the only foods given much attention aside from whale and blubber and shit
>>22052782if you dont serve actual whale you shouldnt even bother.
>>22052783You forgot rat meat.
>>22052782weird, a /litck/ thread
>>22052782tuna
>>22053455I think the person hosting is randomly assigned..?or OP is a dumb liarThe world will never know
Chowder with these as the accoutrement
Seamen
>>22052782Did you know Moby's a vegan
>>22052782I liked Moby Dick. It’s free of symbolism, just a simple story of a man’s hatred towards an animal.
>>22053451You should join a book club. Solid idea. Not weird.
>>22053705Nice
>>22052782>>22053834kekGood one, anon.
Shark Steaks>>22052797Are these discontinued or what? Every time I go to Dollar General there's just an empty slot on the shelf where the whales should be. Been that way for months in every town I go to.
>>22052782Cater it from pic related.
>>22053011>checkedDo you not know that in the service one must always choose the lesser of two weevils?
>>22054007Lmao
>>22052782Lemons (to prevent scurvy)
Chapter 64 Stubb’s Supperbasically the epitome of /ck/ steak autismChapter 65 The Whale as a Dishmore great autismGood luck sourcing the whale steak
>>22054275>anon sources dolphin meat because it's close enough
>>22052782Beer, Gin, cheese, bread, lots of it!
>>22054007Alpha males can snuggle in bed without feeling awkward or gay. It's gay if their dicks get hard.
>>22054523If you're dick isn't constantly hard, you're not an alpha.
