The present is food ("a dish of doves"—line 124).

This takes place in Act II, Scene 2. Gobbo has come to visit his son Launcelot after not seeing him for a few years. Launcelot has been working as a servant for Shylock, so Gobbo, wanting to show respect, brings a present for his son's master.

At the same time Gobbo comes to visit, however, Launcelot has just decided to stop working for Shylock. As a result, he does not want his father to give Shylock the present. ("Give him a present? Give him a halter!"—lines 97-98). Instead, Launcelot instructs his father to give the present to Bassanio, with whom he hopes to get a job. When Bassanio shows up, Gobbo offers him the "dish of doves." The doves never make it to Shylock.
