I've had two extra scenes involving food--a night at the Sarinis for a heist and the food room at the Ruby Masquerade. Here's what I used for food.
The Sarini feast, inspired by the Council of Thieves AP:
Cocktail hors d'oeuvres: imported fruits and breads, spiced olives, a selection of curious pickles, huge stuffed peppers, figs, dates and honeycombs.
Tasting dishes while seated: honey-roasted hogfish, venison, sturgeon, and lampreys in hot sauce.
Selection of entrees: whole roast baby squid served with honey sauce, minted lamb with fresh vegetables, sauced hatchling alligator, tureens of cod spawn in garlic, and leveret stewed in wine and parsley.
After-dinner: exotic tobaccos, potent liquors, and eating live de-fanged serpents that have been gorged on drugged mice and other mind-altering substances.
Food at the Ruby Masquerade:
From Laria's coffee shop: devil's food cake, mini cinnamon rolls
Fruits: pineapple, pomegranate, strawberries
Hors d'oeuvres: calimari, spiced olives, lampreys in hot sauce, blood sausage, deviled eggs
Alcohol: red wine, lager, onion maces in alcoholic dipping sauce.
What have you been using for this world-building flavor?

Ah, good, you've avoided one of the classic blunders, the most famous of which is "Never get involved in a land war in Casmaron," but only slightly less well known is this: "Never treat oysters as a delicacy before the setting's equivalent of 1920!"
(Also, use blackberries in something.)
*Adjusts spectacles*
"Technically it would be about 1924~ CE* on Earth if RoW is to be trusted..."
Seconded on blackberries. Don't forget they can pair well with savory dishes.
*note: it is well known that all historians are invariably chaotic evil.
