Food & Spirits: You like to think of yourself as a gourmand ... no Domino's and Tombstone for you, no sir. You go straight for the fancy stuff. But if you haven't ventured beyond this famous chef's tasty pizza pies, you're missing out. Wolfgang Puck's flagship restaurant, Spago, continues to reign as one of LA's hottest dining spots. With dishes such as ricotta-stuffed agnolotti with black truffles and cobb salad peppered with chunks of decedent lobster, it's no wonder he's one of the most notable chefs in America.
If you think his frozen pizzas are scrumptious, then you'll be in heaven when you try Chef Lee Hefter's salmon and crème fraîche pizza. As you might expect, the dining room of this ever-popular eatery is a who's who of Hollywood celebrities. If you're not into star gazing, you can watch the culinary masters prepare your food through a giant wall of colorful, etched glass. So, if you happen to be in the City of Angels, Spago is worth a visit, for the people watching as much as for the food.
