World renowned chef and restaurateur Wolfgang Puck has his menu set for the glitzy Oscars after-party, the Governors Ball, and "Good Morning America" got an exclusive first look at the delicious dishes being served to the stars.

In just over two weeks, after the 96th annual Academy Awards, Puck and his catering team will pass around canapés, including his now trademark smoked salmon Oscar statuettes, marking three decades of Puck's culinary creations for the A-list event.

"We're going to have some traditional dishes and also some brand-new innovations," Puck said in a video to "GMA." "Can you believe this year I'm doing the Governors Ball for the 30th time? So I'll see you all on the red carpet!"

Puck provided "GMA" an exclusive sneak peek of this year's menu, which includes his classic truffle chicken pot pie, and brand-new bites like a honey butter toast with fennel marmalade and whipped crème fraîche.
