Now let's get down to the Saturday medieval banquet, which is unique and lots of fun. There is a single price, about $30.00, which includes all the food and wine. First, a suckling pig is carried into the dining room on the shoulders of the waiters who are dressed in medieval garb. This is followed by the live cat--the animal who makes certain that the king's food is not poisoned. There are about six courses, meat, followed by meat, followed by poultry, followed by--you guessed it!--meat. Red wine is left on the table in two spouted glass pourers which look something like a wine skin. At the beginning of the evening, people pour the wine neatly into cups, but as the festivities proceed, they begin to pour directly into their mouths from the table apparatus. Lots of hilarity as a tuna(university singing group)comes in to share their songs and the guests' wine. Then, for dessert, NO, not meat, but a small cream puff. This dinner lasted from about nine o'clock into the night, and all the Mexican people in attendance were very friendly to me and my companion.
