00:00At my age now, I probably should say Wolfgang, slow down and take it easy.
00:06But it's quite the opposite.
00:09Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck.
00:12People knew who owned the restaurant.
00:14They rarely knew who did the cooking.
00:16Wolf brought the chef into the limelight.
00:19You know what you have to frighten.
00:21When Wolf opens Spago, he's serving this very simple food that's incredibly flavorful.
00:28Celebrities loved going there.
00:30Choice one, two, and three was Spago.
00:33Wolf got to know all the movie stars.
00:36The age of the celebrity chef had begun.
00:38Everything was a huge success.
00:40But I asked myself, who am I?
00:45As a kid in Austria, life with my stepfather was really rough.
00:51He would say, you're never going to be anything.
00:54If you are a real man, stay out of the kitchen.
00:58But the kitchen was the only place where I felt safe.
01:04I decided at that moment, I want to prove him wrong.
01:11The Mount Rushmore of Chef Wolf's right there in the middle.
01:15He changed the way Americans eat.
01:17Wolf doesn't have an end game.
01:19Maybe that's why he's still at it.
01:21For me, food is family.
01:23Making people happy is my purpose in life.
