The Battle Marengo was an important victory for Napoleon. He named his horse after the battle and even used the name to coin a new monetary unit. His chef created this recipe on the battlefield, using food he pilfered from a local farmer, and served it immediately after the battle was won. Napoleon enjoyed it so much that it became the dish he ate after every victory.
He had a few favorites. Chambertin was his favorite wine, Courvoisier was said to be his favorite congac or brandy, and he once that "In victory you deserve champagne, in defeat you need it."
Napoleon was very fond of chicken.
His favourite, or so he says: was chicken with fried onions.
