The ending of the eighth season of "Game of Thrones" brought great regret to all fans.

The same is true for me, but this regret is not for the plot, but for the nostalgia of the food that appeared in this "Song of Ice and Fire".

George Raymond Richard Martin, often referred to as George R.R. Martin or GRRM, is an American writer who specializes in fantasy, science fiction, and horror novels.

magazine called it "America's Tolkien."

This old American man really likes to eat, which is evident from his body shape.

Not only in "A Song of Ice and Fire", almost all of his works describe food in great detail, and it can even be said that he went to great lengths to describe his favorite delicacies.

But it's not boring. In fact, whenever I read his novels, I always enjoy them.

A foreign fan blog called "The Inn at the Crossroads" (the same name as a small restaurant in "A Song of Ice and Fire") highly restores various delicacies in the virtual medieval era in "Ice and Fire"

.

This place in the far north of Westeros, which appears throughout the book, is the residence of the Night's Watch.

They guard the 215-meter-high ice wall and patrol in the darkness.

It's like winter here all year round, it can even be said to be colder than winter.

Night watchmen are ignored by people and usually lack the money to buy high-quality ingredients, so they generally use local materials.

Most of the Night's Watch's food consists of stored preserved foods, and they also drink some alcoholic beverages to keep warm.

This fiefdom, ruled by the Starks of Winterfell, is larger than the rest of Westeros combined.

The vast territory has brought a variety of products, such as game, poultry, cattle and sheep, potatoes and wheat products represented by bread, which allows every chef to avoid the risk of providing customers with the same food; apples, raspberries, pumpkins, and even seafood

It can provide enough spices for a feast; not only that, the North will also introduce some foreign foods through White Harbor, such as Sansa's favorite lemon cake.

King's Landing is the largest port city in Westeros and a melting pot of various foods. Almost all cuisines can be found in this city.

The nobles feasted on goose, venison, partridge and snake meat every day; the common people could eat a bowl of stew in some humble shops.

There are many fruits here, and a dazzling array of cakes and pies are the specialty foods here.

The food here is as passionate as the people here. The local food on the coast of the sand sea is very unique. The roasted snake (reminds me of Pei Ye inexplicably) and dried pepper are quite unique.

Just like Turpan, grapes are also produced here, and blood oranges, olives, and dates will always appear on the dining table here.

The food of the Free Trade Cities and the Dothraki Sea is somewhat similar to the food of the ancient Mediterranean region, with unique and exotic characteristics.

There are two schools of food names here: exotic and rustic.

For those with fanciful names, there are names like Honey Fingers; for those with funky names, there are fried locusts, crocodile meat, and spiny foods.

Shen Kuo's "Mengxi Bi Tan" records: "The ancients used brassicae to ward off beetles when collecting books." Mixing brassicas in books can not only prevent beetles from biting, but also provide a faint fragrance when reading.

In fact, good books not only have their own unique fragrance, but also always have a unique taste, which makes people read and enjoy.

I write this article for the enjoyment of my readers. I hope that everyone can enjoy the fun and taste of "ice and fire" as much as I do.
