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