Chefs & Champagne® The James Beard Foundation honors Wolgang Puck
We are thrilled to welcome the Beard House’s first visiting chef, multiple JBF Award-winner Wolfgang Puck, as the honoree at our annual summer soiree, Chefs & Champagne® New York. Puck’s innovative cooking secured him a place on the culinary map nearly three decades ago, and he’s been an icon of California cuisine ever since. Helping us celebrate the pleasures of summer and Puck’s legendary career are more than 35 chefs from around the country, four prestigious Champagne houses, and our generous host, Wölffer Estate Vineyard, who just happens to be celebrating their own 20th anniversary this year.
