"Chilled monkey brains."
A Merchant, regarding the unusual dish.[src]
MonkeyBrains

A Primate Parfait served to Willie Scott.

Primate Parfait[1] was a dessert served at the Guardian of Tradition Dinner in Pankot Palace consisting of soft, chilled monkey brains served within the open head of the primate. In 1935, a Pankot merchant was confused that Willie Scott was not eating it. After discovering all the previous courses repulsive, Willie ended up fainting in disgust, having lost all hope in acquiring a satisfying course.[2] Upon seen the scene Indiana wondered how attractive life in the palace as the wife of a monkey-brain-eating, teenaged maharajah seemed to her now.[3]

The Primate Parfait brains were made of custard with raspberry saurce.[5]
