Once all the Oscars are handed out, the world’s most powerful celebrities will be tucking into pears with 24-carat gold and BLTs made with lobster.
Chef Wolfgang Puck returns to cater the post-telecast party for the 21st year and will oversee the choreography of 50 different dishes that will be passed throughout the evening for an estimated 1,500 guests.
Along with signature and recurring Oscar dishes such as smoked salmon, chicken pot pie with black truffles and mini American Wagyu burgers, guests will also nosh on lobster BLTs, beet latkes with pastrami duck and apple mustard and Dover sole with orange miso vinaigrette.
For the many stars who shun meat, vegetarian offerings will include organic parsnip soup with white chocolate, pears and 24K gold, artichokes with asparagus, fava beans, baby beets and citrus vinaigrette.
Desserts -- should the stars permit themselves to indulge -- will include apple millefeuille with cider jelly; peanut butter strawberry lollipops and Puck’s 24-carat gold chocolate Oscars.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, the filmmaking community will gather for their own celebration at chef Daniel Boulud’s New York restaurant Daniel, the only East Coast viewing party officially hosted by The  Academy.
At Daniel, guests will tuck into canapés inspired by Best Picture nominees including "Boyhood," "American Sniper," and "The Theory of Everything."
Guests will be greeted by life-sized Oscar statues flanking the restaurant entrance and will be able to watch the event live on high-definition LCD monitors installed throughout the dining room.
The 87th Oscars will be held Sunday, February 22 and televised live on ABC at 7 pm ET. The show will be televised in more than 225 countries worldwide.
