If you are hungry, DO NOT go to Wolfgang's restaurants. I ate at his place in Washington DC, I forget the name, but I might have been "Starvation".

Anyway, besides the food being ridiculously expensive, the portions were laughably, (although not at the time), small. Deciding on the Kobe beef for $60, I was dismayed to receive four 1 inch by 3 inch by a quarter inch thick pieces of beef and nothing else except a small pile of garnish which I ate because I was hungry. I suppose the Kobe beef was good, but it certainly wasn't better then any Prime Rib cut I could have gotten for a quarter as much.

Call me a peasant if you will, but Wolfgang Puck's food is way over priced, and very pretentious.
