Famed chef and restaurateur Wolfgang Puck spoke to CNN's Elizabeth Wagmeister on the red carpet a short time ago. He's the man behind the menu at the exclusive Governors Ball, the lavish after-party held after each Academy Awards. Some of the night's biggest stars will feast on smoked salmon, macaroni and cheese, mushroom risotto with truffles, Peking duck and much more, Puck said. He also told Wagmeister about some of his favorite interactions with A-listers, including the time actor Joaquin Phoenix stepped into the kitchen to enjoy his meal with the staff, and the time Julia Roberts kissed the chefs as she exited through the kitchen. Legendary funny-man Bill Murray also made an appearance on one occasion, throwing steak salt everywhere.
