World-renowned chef Wolfgang Puck is back to cater the famed Governors Ball, the official afterparty of the Academy Awards. Puck got his culinary inspiration from many of the nominated films and used that to design his pages-long menu, which focuses heavily vegan options for attendees.
Seventy percent of the Governors Ball menu is completely plant-based this year while the other 30 percent features vegetarian, pescatarian, and meat options.
Puck told Cheddar that Best Picture nominee Parasite drove him to add items with Korean flair to his menu, including dish options with steak or eggplant bases. The Austrian native also paid homage to his home country and the hit movie Once Upon a Time in Hollywood with a dish of chicken and waffles.
Puck says while the fried chicken is also an Austrian staple, he feels that chicken and waffles dish is synonymous with American culture.
If it were up to Puck, everyone would have an Oscar. To top off the night, he and his team are preparing more than 5,000 chocolate statuettes covered in 24 karat gold for guests to take home and sink their teeth into.
