NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • 80 recipes inspired by the magical world of Dungeons & Dragons
“Ready a tall tankard of mead and brace yourself for a culinary journey to match any quest!”—Tom Morello, Rage Against the Machine
From the D&D experts behind Dungeons & Dragons Art & Arcana comes a cookbook that invites fantasy lovers to celebrate the unique culinary creations and traditions of their favorite fictional cultures. With this book, you can prepare dishes delicate enough to dine like elves and their drow cousins or hearty enough to feast like a dwarven clan or an orcish horde. All eighty dishes—developed by a professional chef—are delicious, easy to prepare, and composed of wholesome ingredients readily found in our world.
Heroes’ Feast includes recipes for snacking, such as Elven Bread, Iron Rations, savory Hand Pies, and Orc Bacon, as well as hearty vegetarian, meaty, and fish mains, such as Amphail Braised Beef, Hommlet Golden Brown Roasted Turkey, Drow Mushroom Steaks, and Pan-Fried Knucklehead Trout—all which pair perfectly with a side of Otik’s famous fried spiced potatoes. There are also featured desserts and cocktails—such as Heartlands Rose Apple and Blackberry Pie, Trolltide Candied Apples, Evermead, Potion of Restoration, and Goodberry Blend—and everything in between, to satisfy a craving for any adventure.

My D&D group has made a tradition of cooking a dish from this cook book every time we have a session and so far, there hasn’t been a single dish that we haven’t loved. Looking forward to seeing what the next book has to offer after we finish this one.

There’s two ways to talk about this book – as a cookbook, and as a D&D artifact.
Starting with the cookbook – these are some very accessible recipes. Ingredients are largely affordable, and most are not difficult to prepare. The instructions are more than adequately explanatory – they really walk you through the process from start to finish. Dense paragraphs may make recipe usability a little daunting for inexperienced cooks…but admittedly, numbered steps would have broken the look and feel for this book (which is frankly just as important to this cookbook as the cooking part). Some recipes use shortcuts – like the hand pies which include pie crust as an ingredient versus walking you through making your own…that’s not a quibble – just an indicator of the degree of difficulty for these recipes. Most of these recipes are 10 ingredients of fewer, many fit on a single page, and most include ingredients found at any local grocery store.
But blah blah blah, let’s talk about this as a D&D artifact so that I can get to the five-star part.
WOW! Just wow. Wowwy wow wow. I think if I had to pick a favorite thing right now, it’s the pictures of the food which not only succeed in making the dishes look absolutely irresistible, but also depict the food served in wooden trenchers, pewter goblets, and eldritch-looking flasks. Fantasy photography can be very “cheesy” (and not like a deep gnome trillimac pod…) – but the imagery in this book never comes off as excessively posed or fake…you really get the impression that you’ve just stepped into a traveler’s inn or Dwarven hall or Halfling burrow. It’s all lovely, it all tells a story, and it is all very convincing.
The storytelling is, for me, what’s best about this book. This book also gives Dungeon Masters more fodder (sorry, I’m full of puns today) for their in-game transactions. Why just serve “soup” at the inn when adventurers could serve “Hardbuckler Stew?” Beyond simple name substitutions, brief explorations of elven, dwarven, halfling, and human cuisine shed light on how the game (and its players) understand these fantastic cultures. “Heroe’s Feast” brings real nuts-and-bolts (or should I say farm-to-table?) life to the Dungeons and Dragons multiverse.
In sum: Good, easy-to-make, largely affordable recipes creatively photographed and rounded out with lore and art. A great introductory+ cookbook for beginners, and a delightful immersion tool for gamers.

O produto me surpreendeu eu sou fã de DnD a anos e no caso ter um livro oficial de receitas lotado de referencias só fez eu me afundar mais kkkkk de qualquer forma o livro é bem escrito, bem desenhado e as receitas são impecáveis.
Na minha sincera opinião ótima aquisição para servir almoços ou jantares durante suas sessões, com certeza não vai decepcionar os players nem o DM.

I’m not one to typically leave reviews for products, but I have to say that this book not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. What I hoped for was a nice quality book with some recipes from the worlds of Dungeons & Dragons. What I received however, was much more.
On the surface, the book is large, and stunning quality with beautiful artwork that adorns the cover. The contents are very special however, as they not only give you a plethora of recipes you can create, but they also give you both an overview of the book’s purpose, as well as inspiration on how to incorporate the recipes found inside into your ongoing campaign. It also categorizes all of the recipes by where they originate. You’ll find recipes in sections dedicated to Human, Elven, Dwarven, and Halfling cuisine. And even another section with single dishes that originate from the cultures of some of D&D’s more obscure races like Tieflings, Dragonborn, and Tabaxi. Accompanying all of these recipes are history and lore on the purpose each dish served within each of their cultures, respectively. An example recipe being a specialty dish served within the Elven community as the final piece of their meal. Appropriately named “Meal’s End.”
Between each section, you’ll also find the menus for some of DND’s most treasured Taverns and Inns. Were you ever curious to what dishes you could find on the menu for the Yawning Portal?
And as you turn the page to each new section, you’ll find even more stunning artwork, along with the history and etiquette of how each culture’s meals are prepared, served, and dined upon.
I used this book as a special part of my previous campaign’s final session. Letting it be a surprise to my players to find authentic cuisine represented from each of their cultures. Not only was each recipe loved by us all, but they’re truly unique from one another. It’s not cheap, shameless labeling on normal food dishes along the lines of “Elven Mac N’ Cheese.” Each dish feels properly sorted by lifestyle and unique tastes. Dwarven dishes are hearty, meaty, and slow roasted due to their lengthy life cycles. Elven dishes are light, sometimes fruity, and earthy. And every recipe feels special, and deliciously uncommon.
So take it from me, this book not only deserves a spot on your shelf, but it should sit right beside your Dungeon Master’s Guide and Player’s Handbook. It’s that special. It has numerous, delicious dishes for you to prepare, but also inspiration and guides for how to incorporate food, their history, and dining etiquette into your stories. Making this book one heck of an immersive storytelling device to further add flavor to your campaigns.
