More quotes by Wolfgang Puck
One thing I always say is being a great chef today is not enough - you have to be a great businessman.
Wolfgang Puck
I like to be firm. But it is easier to be nice than to be nasty.
Wolfgang Puck
It is going to have healthy food and exercise mixed together. With smaller portions, and more exercise, you live a better life.
Wolfgang Puck
It's an interesting thing, Top Chef. Some of the contestants will make you one great dish, and then make you something on the next show that will make you say, Is that the same person?
Wolfgang Puck
Television in the '80s was very limited. There was no Food Network. When I opened Spago, I had the kitchen in the dining hall. It was probably the first restaurant to do so. The dining scene became more casual. All these cooking shows have transformed our profession one-hundred percent.
Wolfgang Puck
I won't quit my day job. I like restaurants. I don't do a lot of television, either, even though people come to me with projects all the time. I have to spend time in the kitchen.
Wolfgang Puck
I learn more from the one restaurant that didn't work than from all the ones that were successes.
Wolfgang Puck
Most seasonings are based on family tradition.
Wolfgang Puck
I fell in love with food because of my mother. So, I will definitely be sharing and expanding more recipes from my culture (as well as many other cultures), and will be sharing recipes that I have experienced from my whole culinary life.
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
Stay away from iodized table salt. It's just bad and doesn't help food taste good.
Wolfgang Puck
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.
Wolfgang Puck
Now everybody thinks that once you do Top Chef, then 13 weeks later you're a chef. Nobody wants to learn to cook anymore.
Wolfgang Puck
I think it's really important to keep on staying motivated.
Wolfgang Puck
America has undergone a total food and wine revolution.
Wolfgang Puck
One of the things I've found now, not just for television, but in the restaurant, is that you have many anxious chefs, who know how to cook twenty recipes really well, but they don't have a good foundation for other things.
Wolfgang Puck
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.
Wolfgang Puck
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
For me, I don't expect to have a really amazing meal each time I dine out. Having a good meal with your loved ones - that's what makes the experience.
Wolfgang Puck
Nutrition is just so important to me, mostly especially for children.
