What type of food do you think would be in Akavir?

I think it would generally be Asian food as well as some made up ones.

Such as eggrolls, Rice, Sushi?, and ect. What about you?

Rice, lots of yummy yummy rice! And fish!

The snakes eat the other races of Akavir. That's all I can think up. Pretty sure the tiger people and the monkeys have the more typical diet. The Snow Demons probably eat whatever after they are done sleeping.

I always figured that they would eat Asian styled foods.

The staple food in the common ranks of the Tsaesci is nisima, which is a thick maize porridge. The porridge is molded into patties and served with either beans, meat, or vegetables in a tomoto-and-onion sauce, collectively called nidiwo. The Tsaesci also eat rice, cassava, and potatoes, though rice is considered a luxury and potatoes are often used as nidiwo. Basically put, the keystone of any Tsaescian meal is starch in generous quantity, and the “relish” is sparse and only intended to add flavor.

In the vast majority of homes, food is cooked over a wood fire using a tripod made of three supporting stones. Children, actual and ritual, are responsible for everything concerning the food from market shopping to dish washing.

Tsaesci is an agricultural society. This means that in villages and cities alike fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, and eggs are plentiful. Processed foods (from cereal to cheese) are in more limited supply and are reserved for special occasions. Because foods are not widely imported, the availability of items depends on the growing season. Tomatoes, onions, bananas and a few varieties of greens are available year round. Other fruits and vegetables, such as pineapples, guavas, mangoes, papayas, tangerines, lemons, cucumbers, eggplants, carrots, green peppers, and cabbage are available dependant on the season and region. Foods that can be stored easily, such as peanuts, maize, and beans, can be purchased cheaply at harvest time, but increase in price as the year progresses. And some produce is imported— Tang Mo exports, chiefly graqes, strawberries, garlic, broccoli, and cauliflower, are sold at foreign markets throughout the cities, though at a considerable cost.

Most villages have some form of restaurant. The most common commercial food is the “chippie” stand—a metal stand used to fry potatoes over a fire. Customers either purchase a small bag to go or eat directly off of the stand. Some villages even have a simple mud hut establishment that serves nisima and nidiwo (usually beans or roasted chicken) at very cheap prices. In the major cities one can find restaurants serving the cuisine of foreign nations, including parts of Tamriel.

Tsaesci drink blood. We have no idea if the other races have even the slightest asian inspiration. So...no...

I thought that sounded African! An interesting route to take.
Even other Asian cultures have a unique cuisine Westerners don't explore enough. Jungled Cyrodil could have had Malay-like food, for all we know.

Rice pudding is tasty and I'm talking about the Indian variety.
Plenty of African cuisine has milk related foodstuff.

Now I'm hungry...Is that why you're raging?

Being hungry was the reason why I made this thread.
