Chef Wolfgang Puck Finally Coming to NYC?

Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck, the man behind restaurants like Spago in Beverly Hills and a product line ranging from coffee to canned food, may finally be coming to NYC. After a recent book signing, Puck told us, "We're talking about something [in New York], and I can't say we're in the advance stages, but these people really want us to do a very important project in New York." Though he later added, "Sometimes I joke to the press in certain cities; in Miami they asked me if I was there to open a restaurant, and I said, 'Not one, three!'"

Please stay away from New York.
You can keep your cookie cutter mass production overpriced and over hyped restaurants in Casinos or in California where they don't know their ass from their elbow when it comes to good food.

I've thrown away food I've bought at his outlets in airports. It wasn't cheap, but it was such a bad sandwich one time and such a bad pizza the other time I wouldn't finish it. If they can't make a decent lunch, it doesn't bode well for anything else.
