Published March 9, 2008 5:00am ET



Wolfgang Puck is the chef-owner of The Source by Wolfgang Puck, the new high-end, Asian-fusion restaurant in the Newseum. The celebrity chef was in town last week for one of his periodic visits as the restaurant launches its lunch service. So, naturally, we asked him for his Media Mix.

Q: What’s the last movie you saw?

At home, I just watched “In the Heat of the Night” with Sidney Poitier. I’m not a big moviegoer or television fanatic, but I do love to watch certain sports, like boxing, on TV.

Q: What’s your favorite TV show?

I usually watch The Discovery Channel or The History Channel with my kids.

Q: What book are you reading?

I love biographies —and I just started one about Picasso.

Q: What are you listening to on your iPod?

Rock is probably my favorite kind of music, but I also like artists like Kanye West. In the restaurants, I like to play Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, U2, the Stones, etc.

Q: What Web site do you visit in the morning?

I usually get my news from newspapers, rather than Web sites, first thing in the morning.
