The culinary captain Wolfgang Puck is reportedly pumped to start up his new restaurant when the Newseum finally opens this fall. But there’s good reason not to share in his excitement — today, at least.
According to Reuters, a Sports Illustrated party celebrating the mag’s annual swimsuit issue “turned into a health scare for stars in Hollywood after a caterer working for celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck may have exposed them to acute Hepatitis A.”
“Carl Shuster, president of Wolfgang Puck Catering, said the company was working closely with health officials to contact anyone who ate food prepared in its Hollywood kitchen between February 1 and 20.” One such guest was Beyonce (who looked fine at the Oscars, so we’re pretty sure she’s safe).
Unless you were at the party, you probably don’t have to worry: no Wolfgang Puck pre-packaged foods or restaurants were affected.
