Pay attention to the fact that when Wolfgang cooks, there aren't a lot of ingredients in the dishes! It's quality ingredients prepared properly, with care. Yes he dresses up the plates with garnish and flowers, but the food is always simple, done right and spot on.

I love how particular Wolfgang is with his childhood and how it really pours over to everything he does. He talks with so much warmth and passion and even though I’ve never eaten at Spago, I’m guessing that these same things translate to his food. Love him as a chef and as a person!

This is the ultimate cooking. Different from those complicated fine dining. It’s simple but warm with heart and bring the flavour to the basis. I m really good at cooking. I feel it!!

Wolfgang was always there, cooking, chatting with guests and just being a great host. It was so wonderful.. I sill never forget those days and will likely never encounter a restaurant that I love more. Thank you Chef !!

He's still a kid and i LOVE IT! Makes so happy!

Dam! His shirt is like in a construction uniform.. But the FACT that Wolfgang personally prepared his food is f****** amazing!

Wolfgang keeps stressing innovation at his restaurants to attract new customers.

He knows never to tamper with his Oscar Salmon Pizza, Chicken Pot Pie, Kobe Beef Sliders........Oh I'm drooling just writing about this. Notice it's always the "comfort food" dishes that leave the biggest impression. People want dishes that remind them of their childhood, that's why the comfort dishes remain popular.
