A Puck name on a resto has as much to do with Puck as a YSL logo on a Chinese knockoff has to do with the former coutorier. Heck, a McDonald's has more to do with Ray Kroc than a WPC has to do with Wolfgang.
An Applebee's menu with prices doubled and a Wolfgang Puck logo is just like a K-mart jacket with a piece of paper that says "Armani" on it stapled to the lining.
