Deciding on dinner following his marathon drive through France and into Switzerland in pursuit of Goldfinger, James Bond opts for choucroute at the Bavaria brasserie.
Kedgeree
At breakfast with Brokenclaw in the eponymous 1990 novel by John Gardner, James Bond has a choice of bacon, sausage, eggs and kedgeree - everything, Brokenclaw reminds Bond, that you'd expect in an old English country house.

In Dr No, James Bond enjoy broiled lobster and rare steak with native vegetables. This recipe is inspired by one from the Sunday Gleaner published just days after Ian Fleming returned to London from carrying the first draft of Dr No.
Steak and kidney pudding
If it's Wednesday, then steak and kidney pudding is on the menu in the Secret Service canteen. In The Man with the Golden Gun, this is the information that James Bond offers the Liaison Section to convince them of his identity.
Pâté maison
We find out in On Her Majesty's Secret Service that James Bond stopped overnight at an auberge on the south bank of the Loire and was offered a 'sleazy provender', which included the fly-walk of the pâté maison.
