Wolfgang Puck restaurant to open soon

Famed chef Wolfgang Puck made a quick visit to Indianapolis recently to check out his Indianapolis venture. The Star reported that he made a few last-minute changes to the menu including the addition of caviar and a chopped salad. mmmm. From the Star:

Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck was nowhere to be seen during the early part of the evening. He arrived at the museum at 6:30 a.m. and did a whirlwind media tour touting his newest baby, the Puck's at the IMA restaurant.

He had not been at the museum in a year, and after seeing the setup of the restaurant, he decided the menu needed some changes.

"It was important for me that the food and the decor fit together," he said matter-of-factly.

The dining room, with its great view of Sutphin Fountain, called out for a more upscale menu, he thought. He even changed the Wednesday night menu a bit, adding some lobster and caviar to the chopped vegetable salad.

The IMA restaurant, Puck's, will open May 6, as will the more casual museum cafe. Read more about the re-opening of the IMA and its new restaurants HERE.
