This King of Cats wants some strange things to eat. He wants to eat a fat mole, not an unusual thing for a cat, but he wants it smothered in starlight. He wants a stew made of nine mice, precisely. He wants a Brisket of Basilisk, a mythical request to be sure. He smiles that he is going to resemble the Moon, so round will he be after eating all these things, especially since he has arisen for a midnight snack of a dozen lobster claws. Evidently Blake's inn has a wide variety of foodstuffs available.
