I'd ladle duxelles over beef pieces, then perch a little hat of light puff pastry over that just before serving. Delicate, allusive to the old dish, more sensible and more predictable.

You are better than you think!but alas, if one is not born snarky all you can do, really, is applaud.
That's what everyone in Portland did -- anticipating the Occam's razor of Kramer's wit as eagerly as the appealing descriptions of good food. While I was there, one restaurant -- nearly ruined by a Kramer review -- put out a WANTED advertisement offering a lavish meal (with wine -- Chateau Latour) for his picture.Jenise wrote:...all you can do, really, is applaud.

I bought it shortly after reading several volumns of Oscar Wilde in hopes that after reading every page I would have half a clue about how to master the artful, ascerbic putdown, but alas, if one is not born snarky all you can do, really, is applaud.
