More quotes by Wolfgang Puck
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.

When you meet someone, ask about what hobby they have, not what they do. People always ask me about cooking, but I prefer to talk about tennis or boxing.

What I don't like is breakfast in the morning. I have a double-espresso cappuccino, but no food.
Wolfgang Puck
The usage of proper salt is really just a small piece of education. However, I want people to really get the proper nutrition from food for them and their family.

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.

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
I like to be firm. But it is easier to be nice than to be nasty.
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
You can eat an omelet at midnight, at lunchtime, all day long. It's perfect for every occasion.
Wolfgang Puck
Thirty-five years ago, being a cook was the same as being a used-car salesman.
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
I learn more from the one restaurant that didn't work than from all the ones that were successes.
Wolfgang Puck
My passion for writing cookbooks really came from my love of collecting cookbooks.

New Yorkers think they have everything, all the best art and music. But really L.A. is a better place.
Wolfgang Puck
A lot of chefs are traditional and do it very well. But the ones who are the most successful are the ones who change things. That is why someone like Heston Blumenthal is a genius.
Wolfgang Puck
It was a revolution, but now it is an evolution. People know more ingredients, people know more techniques, and people look for more ingredients they've never looked for before. In the '80s, you couldn't find raw tuna in any restaurant that wasn't Japanese. Now, you can't find any restaurant without it or sashimi.

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