Best food buff for skull cavern?

[dalgo]

I have several food types available but because their buffs don't stack I need to choose one:

Spicy Eel (+1 speed, +1 luck)
Crab Cakes (+1 speed, +1 defence)
Pumpkin Soup (+2 luck, +2 defence)
Roots Platter (+3 attack)

Which would be best for skull cavern?

I just stick to the spicy eel. The speed boost is all you really need and they're much easier to find than crab cakes in my experience.

For healing just stack something else like purple mushrooms or salads.

Spicy Eel, and a non-boosting high healing food.

Thanks. I decided on spicy eel and had plenty of health foods on hand (roasted hazelnuts + life elixir) and reached floor 100 for the first time - at 1:40 am!

Mind you that was after several reloads.
