Camille Jetta Of Dinner Party: The Future Is Camaraderie

In this episode, we look into the future with Camille Jetta, chef and owner of Dinner Party, a new kind of prix-fixe restaurant in Brooklyn focused on community and sustainability. Camille is rewriting the rules of what a restaurant can be today, from decorating with second-hand finds to offering lower-priced food on Sundays to building a team based on camaraderie and cooks, not chefs. Camille also shares her early food awakenings as an exchange student in Brittany learning not to be a picky eater and as a student at UC Berkeley exploring and working in the iconic local food scene. She and Abena also discuss how Dinner Party came to be and the leap of faith it required; the influence of Alice Waters and Chez Panisse; and her desire to one day write a book and open a non-profit restaurant. Don’t miss Camille’s Future Flash Five predictions and her voicemail to her future self.Thank you to Kerrygold for supporting our show.
