Vertu’s Casey Gorman and Wolfgang Puck
The Austrian born Chef – who maintains his thick accent – will be dishing it out for the Oscars, not that his thick accent has anything to do with it.
Last night he paired with Vertu and wife Gelila Asseta Puck to host an exclusive pre-Oscar dinner in support of Dream for Future Africa Foundation, a star studded affair with Jada Pinkett Smith, Jessica Biel, Venus Williams, Ryan Seacrest and LeAnn Rimes

Some of us remember when Helga Orfila – famous for the photo at The Panama Canal Treaty signing with then President Jimmy Carter and wife of former Secretary of The OAS Alejandro Orfila – used to fly in Wolfgang’s pizzas from LA for dinner parties at their country home in Middleburg. The photo, which has disappeared from cyberspace, was all wonderfully scandalous and launched Washingtonians into shock mode for years. Find the photo and we’ll ask Wolfgang to fly in some pizza.
