More quotes by Wolfgang Puck
It's easier being a judge than a competitor. As a judge, you don't have any risks. That makes it much more enjoyable.
Wolfgang Puck

Wolfgang Puck
One thing I always say is being a great chef today is not enough - you have to be a great businessman.

Omelets are about technique. Now, different people make it different ways, but, if you're a chef in Europe, an omelet has to be cooked on the outside, with just a simmer of color, and the inside has to be soft. It should be cooked like a steak - medium rare.
Wolfgang Puck

Wolfgang Puck
There is no value with just one restaurant or with one person. The brand has to be bigger than the person.
Wolfgang Puck
Stay away from iodized table salt. It's just bad and doesn't help food taste good.
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
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 grew up so poor in Austria that we never took a vacation with my family.
Wolfgang Puck
Television in the '80s was very limited. There was no Food Network.
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
I think the time of the formal dinners is over.
