Death Cheeze (This cheese is made from catoblepas milk)
Twice-Battered Axe Beak Strips with a Brandied Orange Sauce
Moon worms: a species of glow-worms (think of real-world white grubs, but glistening white and "fat earthworm" shape, i.e. bulging segments) that taste like cashews raw, and can be fried, and if fried or jarred for long enough with honey make a sweet treat some drow nigh kill for.
Blackened Pyrimo (a type of aggressive fish similar to piranhas, was prized, despite being deadly if not prepared in the correct manner)
Green Ulaver Wine (type of sweet dessert wine)
Drow Spiderblood Wine (Drow wine fermented using the venom from giant spiders. Drow typically consume small amounts as children over months or years to build up an immunity to the poisonous effects of the wine)
Cave Fisher Blood (consumed neat)
Fluorescent fungus salad with cave grubs
Diced blind eel and deep salts
Turtle Soup with Bluecap Mushrooms and Sporebread (Bluebread)
Raw mushrooms with creamy dipping sauces
Translucent crayfish stew
Crimson moss cakes and cave jelly
Snake (four sorts, beheaded and then boiled until skins separate from flesh; skins, like heads, are discarded)
Roasted deep beetles with algae dip
Riding Lizard tenderloin in mineral pepper
Arachnidumplings and fried fungus (Drow who worship Lolth would not eat arachnidumplings, as they revere spiders)
Deep rothe steak and Cave Fisher Claws
Bon Appetit

Thank you for the inspiration to try to envision a catoplebas being milked. I will have to share this thought with the other mythology nerds once my LGS starts holding Friday Night Magic again because I don't want to suffer this mental imagery alone and that's the only place I know of where I can physically encounter anybody that knows what a catoblepas is.

I'm running an Underdark campaign in a drow city, here are some of the menu items I've had at various taverns
Uppity Drow Place
Magenta Moss wine and assorted surface imports
Baked Eel and Sharp Rothe Cheese
Salted Spider Sausage on Sporenut Bread
Pickled Cave Lizard Platter (legs, tails, & eggs)
Seared Whitefish with Herbed Sporenut Roll
Surfaceberry Tart (if available)
Commoner Tavern
Mushroom Mead and Duergar spiced whiskey (Fireball)
Roasted Rothe and Bitter Bat Cheese
Dryroot Porridge (Savoury)
Blue Spore Porridge (Sweet)
Red Seed Porridge (Spicy, indicate 1-4 candles)
Root Stew with Mushrooms
Baked Lamprey with Bluebread Biscuits
But everyone's favorite was the Spicy Sausage with Fire Lichen Paste, they even took some on the road and used it to calm down some hungry goblins.
All generalizations are false.
this super helpful since I want to develop a drow culture for a homebrew campain
some of these sound pretty tasty.
