More quotes by Wolfgang Puck

The food could taste amazing however, if you present a plate of misfortunate looking food...you would really question yourself about whether or not you should eat it.
Wolfgang Puck
Thirty-five years ago, being a cook was the same as being a used-car salesman.
Wolfgang Puck
