It is so nice to talk to someone that has a passion for food and family.

Most seasonings are based on family tradition.

I have two young boys, and my wife is at home. Most of the time, I will cook the food, and we'll eat together.

Thirty-five years ago, being a cook was the same as being a used-car salesman.

I grew up in Austria, and for me real comfort food is Wiener Schnitzel. Wiener Schnitzel and mashed potatoes because it reminds me of my youth... It reminds me when I grow up and it feels very comforting.

Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavors - it's how you combine them that sets you apart.
Wolfgang Puck

When I was 27, if I didn't put 15 things in one dish I wasn't happy.

A lot of restaurants serve good food, but they don't have very good service.
Wolfgang Puck

People are visual and hands on learners.

For example, you can eat a Caesar salad and say, Wow, I ate so healthy today. You forget there was a quarter-cup of oil in there, and all the calories are from fat. So it's better if you eat a grilled chicken breast, some steamed brown rice, and a little salad with balsamic vinegar on top.

I grew up so poor in Austria that we never took a vacation with my family.
Wolfgang Puck
Image
Young people want to be famous before they know how to cook, before they know how to treat people, before they know what hospitality means. I stayed in France for seven years and Austria for three, so before I was a chef anywhere I was already cooking for 10 years.

I like the Japanese knives, I like French knives. Whatever's sharp.

My passion for writing cookbooks really came from my love of collecting cookbooks.
