With 3 Michelin stars, Dominique Crenn is a culinary star in San Francisco, California. However, nothing was written. Abandoned by her mother, adopted at the age of 18 months, Dominique Crenn is taken in by a Breton father, resistant and Gaullist who gives him a taste for audacity.

She is hired in a restaurant and makes a promise to herself: one day open her own place which will be a space of warmth, tolerance, openness and poetry.
