I was talking to Jennifer (youngest daughter) the other day and she dropped a bomb on me.
She worked at a very high end restaurant & cognac bar for a few days - before the fact that they had no business (hard sell on $800 a shot cognac?) convinced her to quit. She was describing what they called a "Truffletini", rim a martini glass with truffle salt, top shelf vodka (I know not really a martini ) martini, garnish with 3 or 4 blue cheese stuffed olives. I just need the olives I want this so badly.
I had to google it - and found this! Talk about gilding the lilly: Gilded lilly!

You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!
