...hand-tatted by a 15-year-old Rochester girl; a cake plate lovingly decorated by an elderly woman in the Midwest. Luci has also reaped a harvest of gifts from two bridal showers-one in Waukegan, the other in Washington. At the latter, the bride-to-be received enough soufflé dishes to swamp the Confrerie des Chevaliers du Tastevin. Now the future Mrs. Nugent will have to learn to cook a souffl...
Pickled okra. Spinach soufflé. Double divinity. Et, mon Dieu, ze bar-bé-cue! Escoffier would have turned in his grave. Last week White House Chef René Verdon, who is only mortal, turned in his apron instead...
Breeding a race horse is like baking a soufflé: you find a good recipe, follow it exactly-and heaven only knows what the result will be. Mating a mare named Geisha to a stallion named Polynesian may result in 1) a Native Dancer, who won 21 out of 22 races, or 2) a Noble Savage, who never won a race at all.

Though Darmstadt re-creates his musiquettes with utter fidelity, the result is sometimes closer to strudel than soufflé. The orchestra plays impeccably, but without the elan that Paris gave to Offenbach, and he to it. Though every seat at every performance is filled with beaming burghers, the cancan line has not a single roguish wink for admiring males. Darmstadt is well pleased nonetheless. Landestheater Director Hering said last week...
