OVERDOEUVRE (V.) ‘o-vur-‘durv To eat so many appetizers that you lose your appetite for a meal. Usage: At the art opening before his anniversary dinner with Lila, Victor pigged out on saté skewers, honey-roasted cashews and prosciutto-wrapped asparagus. As they left, he realized with regret that he’d overdoeuvred, and would be too full to enjoy their long-awaited feast at Gramercy Tavern.
