...part-owners Schiffer, Macpherson and Campbell--and now teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. Turlington, who later joined the venture, left the cafe last year, and the menu at the Rockefeller Center location can't even spell the name of one of its co-owners correctly, offering "Noami's Fish & Chips...
...stemmed his abiding interest in the "totemic"--in mythic images that were either lost to modern, Euro-American culture or buried so far back in its origins that they seemed mysterious and exotic.

Iridescent slabs of yellowtail arrive on a platter ($16.50) with translucent pink tuna slices, striated salmon, and a seaweed purse brimming with giant...
...atypical: gone are the origami sculptures and cafeteria-like counters; waitresses in kimonos are nowhere to be found. Instead, Ella Fitzgerald croons from the stereo and marbled black tables are lit by suspended pearlate lamps. A richly-patterned curtain is elegantly draped to frame the window and an enormous fish tank full of exotic fish is sunk into the wall above the sushi...
