LOS ANGELES (AP) - Writers strike or not, chef Wolfgang Puck is
ordering mounds of food for the Governors Ball that comes right
after the Oscars ceremony.
It's set for February 24th.
As he has in past years, he's planning on a party for 1,500
people in a ballroom in the same complex as the Kodak Theatre.
Among other things, Puck is buying 3,500 pounds of wild Alaskan
salmon, 1,200 pounds of spiny lobster, 550 pounds of American Kobe
beef and 4,800 pounds of asparagus.
Whatever is left over goes to Angel Harvest, which distributes
the food to agencies that feed the poor and homeless.
