PolarPlot3D?

Dear Community,

sometimes I need to plot a 3D plot in cylindrical coordinates. That is 
in {r,/phi,z}. Typically I use a boring way: express the r and /phi in 
terms of x and y and apply Plot3D.

Is there a shorted way to directly plot a function f=f[r, phi] such that 
the graph is in Cartesian axes?

Regards, Alexei
