...milk-fed baby lamb, traditionally tendered at Easter, accompanied by egg and lemon sauce. A savory pork roast in pizza dough was invented by Bettoja's husband Angelo, who also prescribed the wines throughout. There are surprisingly few game dishes, but Angelo did contribute a rustic pheasant pate. Desserts include a chocolate and amaretti pie from Parma and one lavish sweet, Sicilian cassata: lemon cake lopped with a heady mixture of rum, chocolate and ricotta. The baking of this elaborately decorated cassata is so distracting a labor that in 1575 the Roman Catholic Church forbade nuns to make...

Washington's attempt to impose sanctions on firms supplying equipment for the natural gas pipeline the Soviets are building from Siberia to Western Europe threatened to spoil Shultz's dinner with French Foreign Minister Claude Cheysson.

...their tenth wedding anniversary. George, a jolly pink-cheeked waiter whose wife has stitched his name in yarn across his jacket, takes charge of what Banchet has labeled "Le Show," wafting a silver platter laden with treasures under the noses of the astonished Horns. There is a colorful vegetable pate studded with bits of broccoli and tomato as bright as jewels. A paupiette of smoked salmon filled with fluffy crab mousse. A lobster sausage served with two sauces-one made with sea urchins, the other with lobster. "They've shown us eight things already," giggles Judy Horn. "I shall...
