[PHOTOS] 35 Celebrities Who Visited Chef’s Restaurant

Chef’s is known as Buffalo’s Favorite Italian Restaurant. It’s the home of the world famous spaghetti parmesan, but it’s known for more than that.

If you have ever been into Chef’s Restaurant, then you already know that the walls are covered with famous celebrities who have visited Chef’s at some point and posed with their famous Chef’s sauce. Although there are plenty of notable celebrities on the wall, you may have overlooked these ones.

The walls at Chef's Restaurant are covered all over the restaurant with celebrities posing with the original delicious sauce, but who was the first person to do it?

You may be surprised to learn that the first person to take a photo with the iconic Chef's sauce visited the restaurant back in 1997, and that celebrity was none other than Jerry Springer. Lou Billittier Jr. actually credits him with creating the wall.

On April 27, Jerry Springer passed away at age 79 years old while at his home in Chicago after battling pancreatic cancer, and of course Chef's Restaurant paid tribute to Springer and the legacy he started at their restaurant.

There's so many celebrities on the wall at Chef's, but you have to watch for Springer's photo next time you're there.
