Breton cuisine is considered to be some of the very best in Tamriel, with many of Tamriel's greatest cooks having been Bretons.[1] Bretons enjoy prosperous trade up and down the Iliac Bay, and the soil of High Rock provides fertile ground for numerous crops. However, the rigid economic hierarchy of Breton culture is also reflected in their cuisine: Professional cooks prepare the most elaborate and expensive dishes for the aristocracy, while the impoverished peasantry must make do with what they can grow or forage themselves.
