Kaiseki Ryori
The kanji characters 懐石 used to write kaiseki literally mean "bosom-pocket stone". These kanji are thought to have been incorporated by Sen no Rikyū (1522–91), to indicate the frugal meal served in the austere style of chanoyu (Japanese tea ceremony). The idea came from the practice where Zen monks would ward off hunger by putting warm stones into the front folds of their robes, near their bellies. Before these kanji started to be used, the kanji for writing the word were simply ones indicating that the cuisine was for a get-together (会席料理).[
For the shared table we could make food as well to put on the table. As a idea for the food we could use the food prepared for kaiseki Ryori. Kaiseki Ryori is traditional Japanese food and it was historically influenced by Buddhism. There's also a lot of dishes that are prepared so it has lots of options in terms of food that we could make out of origami.
It influenced the traditional Japanese table setting historically so it could be good for teaching etiquette.
