Continuing a successful series of dinners across the globe, Wolfgang Puck and Byron Lazaroff-Puck will bring their Generational Tasting Tour to Spago Maui on Sept. 17, 2026, continuing the international culinary journey that brings two generations of the Puck family together for an intimate, one-night-only dining experience.
Following stops in Washington, D.C., Las Vegas, and Istanbul, and continuing through Budapest and London before arriving in Maui, the Generational Tasting Tour has brought Wolfgang and Byron together in Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group restaurants around the world. Each stop creates a distinct culinary dialogue between father and son, pairing Wolfgang’s more than four decades of influence on modern fine dining with Byron’s contemporary perspective, international training, and vision for the future of the restaurant group.
At Spago Maui, Wolfgang and Byron will collaborate on a special multi-course, four-hands tasting menu, with courses served back-to-back to showcase their individual culinary perspectives while illustrating the connection between them. Wolfgang’s dishes will draw from the flavors, techniques and signature creations that have shaped his career, while Byron will look to Maui and Hawaii for inspiration, interpreting local ingredients and dishes through techniques developed during his training in some of the world’s most celebrated Michelin-starred kitchens.
“Cooking with Byron on this tour has been very special for me because I get to see how he takes what he has learned growing up around our restaurants and makes it completely his own.” Says Wolfgang Puck, “Maui has always been an important place for us and to come back here and cook side-by-side with Byron, each of us bringing our own perspective to the menu, is a wonderful way to celebrate where we have been and where we are going next.”
The result is a dinner designed not simply as a retrospective of Wolfgang’s career, but as an exploration of how a culinary legacy continues to evolve. Throughout the evening, guests will experience the intersection of tradition and innovation, with Wolfgang and Byron presenting their approaches side-by-side and demonstrating how the same philosophy of exceptional ingredients, technique and hospitality can take on new meaning across generations.
“Every stop on the Generational Tasting Tour has been different because the city and the ingredients become part of the conversation between my father and me.” says Byron Lazaroff-Puck, “Maui gives us so much to work with, from the local produce and seafood to the flavors and traditions that are unique to Hawaii. I’m excited to take that inspiration and apply my own techniques and perspective while cooking alongside dishes that represent my dad’s career. That contrast between generations is what this tour is really about, respecting what came before while continuing to push it forward.”
The Maui stop also holds special significance for Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group, with Spago Maui serving as one of the group’s most iconic destinations. Set within Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea, the restaurant brings Wolfgang’s signature approach to California cuisine together with the ingredients and culinary traditions of Hawaii, providing a natural setting for the next chapter of the Generational Tasting Tour.
The Generational Tasting Tour spans six countries and more than fifteen Wolfgang Puck Fine Dining Group destinations, with upcoming stops including Singapore, Shanghai, Bahrain, Las Vegas and Beverly Hills. Through each dinner, Wolfgang and Byron continue an ongoing conversation about culinary heritage, evolution and what it means to carry an iconic restaurant legacy forward.
