Wolfgang Puck cooks again for 2009 Oscar Governors Ball

And for the sixth year, Sterling Vineyards created exclusive blends just for the Governors Ball. Mike Westrick, Sterling's vice president of winemaking said, "About 1,500 bottles... will be consumed that evening...Of course, we're asking them to consume in moderation." Yea, whatever.


Last year's full menu

This Sunday, while we're munching on chips and dip, the VIP invitees to the Governors Ball, the Oscars official after party, will be dining on food prepared by celebrity chef and foodstuffs entrepreneur Wolfgang Puck. This is his fifteenth round of cooking for 1,500 Hollywood elite and this year, he goes Zen with tuna tartare in sesame miso cones, chopped Chino Farms veggie salad with ginger soy vinaigrette, and main lobster and caviar. Pastry chef Sherry Yard will create gold-dusted chocolate oscars. I wonder if those will end up on eBay?
