Wolfgang Puck,

owner of the famous 
Spago restaurants and 
one of the most influential
chef-restaurateurs in
America, is credited with
reviving California’s rich
culinary heritage. His 
cooking innovations, 
a result of blending fresh

California ingredients with his classical French techniques, are enjoyed
by world leaders, stars and fellow chefs alike. He established other
trend-setting restaurants like Postrio in San Francisco, Chinois on
Main in Santa Monica, Trattoria del Lupo, and his latest creation, Cut, a
gourmet steakhouse in the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. Home chefs can
also share Mr. Puck’s talents through his cookbooks and, of course,
through his appliances!
