...sounds, cheating by using "piano" as a two-, then a three-syllable word in "I Love a Piano." A devilishly intricate rhyme a la Stephen Sondheim ("We'll have Leontyne Price to sing a/ Medley from 'Der Meistersinger'") was not Berlin's style - to Sondheim's caviar, his lyrics were Spam - but in "Annie Get Your Gun" he did a triple rhyme ("You can't shoot a male in the tail like a quail") whose comic force quickly escalates musically and in the singer's volume. And he could pay cheeky tribute to friend Kaufman's failed play "The Deep...
...CAVIAR PURSE, $100 If you're living the kind of life in which you often eat beluga on the spur of the moment, Dean & Deluca www.deandeluca.com has what it calls Her Caviar Gift. This handwoven silk bag comes with a mother-of-pearl caviar plate built in. We suspect the plate could also be used to hold pigs in a blanket, but that doesn't sound as elegant, does...

But dining halls that were once symbols of refinement are now filled with vagabonds who nightly make a mockery of their first course. While frequenting salad bars for their leafy greens and balsalmic, diners oft-times leave their trays unattended in search...
Overfishing has depleted stocks of sturgeon in the northern Caspian Sea, and in response, Russia and several of its neighbors recently restricted their harvests of the caviar-bearing fish. That could offer an opportunity for U.S. producers of caviar from pen-raised sturgeon, led by the pioneering Stolt Sea Farm of Elverta, Calif. But do the texture and taste measure up? We asked the executive chefs of two of New York City's top seafood restaurants--Rick Moonen of Oceana, pictured, and Marcus Samuelsson of Aquavit--to sample unmarked servings of Russian Osetra caviar and Sterling Classic brand, produced...
