Hors d'oeuvre were a specific kind of food typically presented before the main course. Two well-known examples of these dishes included Stuffed Plavonian starfish and raw rockfish twist, both of which were frequently offered on the opulent repulsortrain known as the Gem of Alderaan and at the yearly Vor-cal Feast which took place at the House Melantha Orbital Hunting Lodge above the planet Vycinyth. R4 droids served hors d'oeuvre at Jabba's Palace, and Max Rebo particularly enjoyed them.
