Oscar Cuisine






In honor of the Oscars, here is an article we found at Yahoo News: 






Star Food






On the glitziest night of the year, those celebrities who do deign to eat
will sip shots of carrot orange gazpacho and nibble on crispy lobster dumplings
and popcorn-topped panna cotta.






Those are among some of the 50 dishes that will be on offer Oscar night from
the chef known as the caterer to the stars, Wolfgang Puck.






Celebrities who’ve stuffed, tucked and shimmied their way into their dresses
for the televised portion of the night may choose to celebrate their wins by
letting loose and tucking into hors d’oeuvres like crispy lobster shrimp
dumplings with five spice, bite-sized fried chicken with white grits and mini
American Wagyu burgers.






For the legions of celebrities like Anne Hathaway, Ellen DeGeneres, Jared
Leto, Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman who shun all animal products, Puck has also
created vegan dishes like carrot orange gazpacho shots, taro root tacos with
avocado, and butternut squash with farro and wild rice.






A few of Puck’s signature Oscar bites will also return, including smoked
salmon Oscars and chicken pot pie with shaved black truffles.






To cap off the night, stars will be offered sweet bites like
chocolate-dipped strawberry cheesecake pops and citrus panna cotta with
chocolate popcorn.






A cake will also be prepared to honor Puck’s 20th consecutive year of
catering the Governors Ball.






The Academy Awards is scheduled for Sunday, March 2 and will be televised in
more than 225 countries worldwide.
