With help from David Park I can state an answer to my own question now:

We want to plot the part of the surface z=f(x,y) that satisfies
a<x<b and g(x)<y<h(x).
Let y(x,w)=(1-w)g(x)+w.h(x) and p(x,w)=f(x,y(w,x)).
Now plot
ParametericPlot3D[{x,(1-w)g(x)+w.h(x),p(x,w)},{x,a,b},{w,0,1}]

Simple comme dire bonjour!
