HOLLYWOOD -- Once all the awards are handed out and the speeches made, the most elegant and star-studded party of the year gets underway: The Oscars' annual Governors Ball.

A 28,000 square-foot blank canvas has been transformed into the setting for the event, thanks to the work of 200 technicians over 10 days. A dazzling ceiling installation consisting of 2,000 parts hovers over the space.

Always at center state at the ball are dozens of dishes especially prepared by celebrated chef Wolfgang Puck - enough to feed the 1,600 guests at the after party.

This year, the menu he and his staff created will be 70% plant-based. As for dessert, there are 43 options... 35 of them vegan.

"I saw this movie called 'Parasite' and, you know, with the Koreans cooking, so I made a vegan Korean pizza with spicy vegetables on top, no cheese. It's so good, I think I'm going to put it on the menu at Spago," Puck said.
