Oscars 2015: How Wolfgang Puck will feed Hollywood's hungry stars

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 21 Februari 2015 | 22.19

Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck is returning to the helm of one of the hottest and biggest post-Oscar parties Sunday, turning out a delectable menu of culinary treats at the 87th Annual Governors Ball.

The charismatic Austrian-born chef and restaurant magnate has been catering the swishy Hollywood affair for 20 years, and it's no small feat.

The Governors Ball is a gala hosted by the Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and takes place immediately after the Academy Awards ceremony.

Puck is in charge of creating and overseeing the feast for the evening's 1,500 well-heeled guests, a few of whom will be feeling more than a little peckish after hauling around 3.85 kg in golden Oscar statuette glory.
