KoEF Training Day Spotlight: Feast Mode

Presented by Jason "Aeston" Rosa


The best of what Realms has to offer is fueled by the fire of the Feastocrat’s kitchen. That’s sure a dramatic way of putting it, but in my opinion there’s a lot of truth to that statement. Feast events are, of course, a long-standing and well-loved tradition in our community but that’s only a part of the story. Social events, tournaments, even quests. All types of events benefit from people being well fed by quality food prepared with love.

The “Feast Mode” training module is dual purpose. You’ll be working in the kitchen throughout most of the day and a lot of what you’ll be doing is helping to prepare the menu of the day, including dinner and dessert. Beyond that, however, you’ll become a student of the Rhiassan kitchen as Gwen, Areni, and Aeston talk you through the finer points on holding a feast and also preparing food at non-feast events. Menu planning, budgeting, preparations, and day-of execution will all be a part of what we teach. You should end the experience feeling confident in your own ability to handle the food at any type of event you want to enrich with your efforts. Please be advised, there is limited room in this training module and it is first come, first “serve” (see what I did there?).
