At a dinner the main course was generally some type of meat or a meat dish. The specifics would vary with the wealth of the people eating and the occasion. An ordinary supper, even for the wealthy, was generally simple, but if it were a special occasion with guests, then they would put out a more elaborate dinner with perhaps several choices of meats for the main course.

Ir depended on whether you were rich or poor. Supper (cena) was the main meal in ancient Rome. For the poor it consisted of a kind of porridge, the puls. The simplest kind would be made from emmer, water, salt and fat. The more sophisticated kind was made with olive oil, with an accompaniment of assorted vegetables when available.

The richer classes ate their puls with eggs, cheese, vegetables and honey and it was also occasionally served with meat or fish. For the very rich, cena was an ostentatious meal shared with many guests. .Dishes included hares, venison, wild boar. Poultry was chicken, cranes, doves, duck, fig-peckers, flamingos, geese, guinea fowls, partridges, pheasants and wood pigeons. Peacocks and ostriches was a very expensive delicacy. Rural people cured ham and bacon.

It is not known specifically what the Romans would eat for their first course as the choice of foods depended upon the tastes (no pun intended) of the host of the dinner. The general consensus is that the first course was eggs of some type, cooked or served in various ways.
