...served atop a bed of tender miniature Beluga Lentils ($22). The salmon is served slightly translucent at the core, perfectly cooked but slightly ovepowered by the salty lentils. Oven Roasted Halibut balances its flavors better, topped with sauteed chanterelle mushrooms, baby lima beans and a sweet corn pudding. The tart lemony sauce metes out the sweetness of the corn pudding and the chanterelles complement the mild flesh of the fish...

But the old Love, the bratty, tattered tart, is so over, so early '90s. Love started her image shift when she became a rock mother (daughter Frances Bean is six). She continued it when she became a movie star. She drew raves for her role in the 1996 film The People vs. Larry Flynt, and is set to star with Christina Ricci, among others, in the forthcoming indie film 200 Cigarettes...
