When I was galley boy I used to throw an onion into the bucket of spuds so they would cry their eyes out.

The following dishes are from some old UCL menus I still have.

Vol-au-Vents Mogador??
\Mousse of Ham
Calf's Head and Feet Vinigarette
Saute of Game
Grendlins of Beef Portugaise
Calves Feet en Poulette
Turkey and Veal Kromeskis
Soufle of Tongue
Petit Bouchees Monglas
Beef Suki Yaki Kowloon
Calves head Financiere

Some sound more like road kill than items for a menu, and some are from first class.
