| Summary: | AL YEGANEH, who was parodied in the sitcom ''Seinfeld'' for his soup mania, is still drawing rave reviews from foodies. His Soup Kitchen International, on West 55th Street near Eighth Avenue, was listed at the top of 38 New York restaurants in ''America's Best Meal Deals,'' a slim volume from the Zagat Survey restaurant raters. Soup Kitchen International's meal-in-a-cup scored a 27 on a 30-point scale. The main difference between St. Bart's at Christmastime and the Hamptons on the Fourth of July was that there were no yachts this time. Other than that, for a certain segment of the partygoing population, the long weekend was about soirees given by TED FIELD, the chairman of Interscope Communications, and SEAN COMBS, the rap impresario known as Puff Daddy. For Mr. Field's party on Friday, beefy security guards turned away would-be crashers. Those admitted to Mr. Field's rented estate in Amagansett included RONALD O. PERELMAN, the chairman of Revlon; MARK WAHLBERG, the actor; the director PENNY MARSHALL, and ''downtown'' JULIE BROWN, a former MTV veejay who came straight from a party that Playboy magazine had given for her at a club in Southampton called Life's a Beach. |
