Get to know your host…

Dominique Crenn is the co-owner and chef of the three-Michelin-starred restaurant Atelier Crenn in San Francisco where she filmed her Netflix episode of Chef’s Table.

MEET YOUR HOST

Dominique Crenn

“Well, I don’t think I’m a chef. I’m just someone who found a way of speaking. It was not a pen. It was not a brush. It was food.”

At Atelier Crenn, artistry is at the forefront, cuisine is a craft, and the community is an inspiration. “Atelier” can be defined as a workshop or studio, a concept that drives Chef Crenn’s modern vision for fine French cuisine. Her highly distinctive French heritage and imaginative gastronomic lair behind the stove at Atelier Crenn is a clear reflection of her unique life story.

Dominique, born in Brittany, France, she immigrated to the USA in her twenties, and settled in California, followed by a stint to Indonesia then back to the USA again. Well known for the precision with which she executes every plate that leaves her kitchen, Crenn’s signature approach to haute cuisine diverges from what one expects of a French chef in one crucial way: She doesn’t serve meat.

Known as the first and only female chef to date to obtain three Michelin stars in the United States for her Atelier Crenn restaurant in San Francisco in 2018. Notably, she also received her 4th star following the opening of Bar Crenn. In 2021, she gained the Icon Award from the World’s 50 Best.

Even before her Chef’s Table debut on Netflix, Crenn has been an inspiring powerhouse in her kitchen and beyond. To define Crenn by her role as a professional cook is almost too limiting. As one of the finest chefs in the world, she’s also an activist and campaigner who drives change in society through her voice and her actions equally. She is an articulate champion of women’s rights, of workers’ rights, of sustainable practices, of healthy living, of the LGBTQ+ community, and even the cancer community (she is cancer-free now after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019).

Join Dominique for a Private French Countryside Chef’s Table.

CULINARY EXPERIENCE IN FRANCE

Introducing a 5-day exquisitely crafted experience of molecular gastronomy, art and indulgence. A “behind the scene” look at how food is grown, cured and prepared in France – with a revolutionary and world renowned chef who’s leading the charge to redefine French cuisine using influences of her chosen home in California.

JOIN THIS EXPERIENCE TO EXPLORE

Life

Explore what it truly means to be alive and how you reconnect with the essence of life. Set your intention to rediscover the feeling of being fully present in a place that allows you to breathe life into your body, mind, and soul, offering space to be present, play, and embrace the vitality of every moment.

You will use all of your senses as you are transported into the exclusive world of French fine dining and living – enjoying masterclasses and intimate discussions with the Master Chef; tastings of limited release Cognac, Champagne and caviar; private concerts and exploring the untouched parts of the French countryside. A curated and rare insight to vintage France.

This magical experience will take place at Domaine des Étangs, a 13th century former castle nestled in the Cognac region and often closed to the public. The grounds boast breathtaking nature that has attracted French art society for years – earning its place in history as the ultimate escape.

Please submit your guestlist request for one of the most exciting gastronomy experiences of the year, taking you on a journey through food, nature, poetry & art.
