S1 E6 Food and Love with Dominique Crenn Life in Food with Laura Price

    • Food

In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to French chef Dominique Crenn, owner of Atelier Crenn in San Francisco. Adopted from an orphanage in France as a baby, Chef Dominique moved to San Francisco in the Eighties and became the first female chef in the US to receive the coveted three Michelin stars, for Atelier Crenn, which she named after her late father, an eminent French politician. She is an advocate and activist for LGBTQ+ and women’s rights and environmental issues. In 2019, she documented the treatment of her breast cancer for her 340k Instagram followers. She cites the love of her partner, the actor Maria Bello, for helping her to recover. In this episode, we talk about the inextricable connection between love and food, and how it powers everything she does.
