In 2018, French chef Dominique Crenn became the first woman in the United States to earn three Michelin stars. Thanks to her restaurant in San Francisco, she was named the world's best female chef at the age of 50 by the prestigious World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
Constantly reinventing classic French flavors and recipes inspired by her illustrious mentors Alain Ducasse and Guy Savoy, she has taken the American culinary scene by storm.
She also made history in Indonesia in 1997 as the first female chef with an all-female brigade.
Passionate about quality ingredients and deeply committed to environmental sustainability, Dominique Crenn embodies the transformations of her time—from evolving consumption trends to reshaping the role of women in a field traditionally dominated by men.
