in the detailing of a thirteenth-century dietary regime, i came on this:

"utatur carnibus pullorum, de silvestribus autem carnibus, capriolinis et leporinis. item perdicibus, conturnicibus, fasianis, piscibus marinis."

there is a lot of exotic eating in that - although having looked up a lot of bird names i still haven't found out what fowl rejoices under the name of conturni-whassit.
