  • Wolfgang Puck was one of the first celebrity chefs rising to fame as a young man with his inspired "California cuisine" which he has served at the famed Los Angeles restaurant Spago since its debut in 1982.

    Majorie Linden filed suit against Puck in late April of 2009 after claims that she fell face first on the floor while using the bathroom at the Spago restaurant in Beverly Hills, resulting in a broken back and injured knee. Linden was reportedly holding the door of the bathroom stall because the lock was broken when another woman yanked on the door causing her to fall head first. She also claims that the bathroom floor was covered in "standing pools of urine and feces" and there was only one usable toilet.TMZ: Wolfgang Puck Sued for Crappy Dining (April 28, 2009)
