La Buvette

“Being a restaurateur is not, as many think, a glamorous profession. In her book, Camille reminds us of why we do it. Because luck found us, and gave us something we adore to take over our lives. This book is for everyone who dreams about falling in love with daily life.”—Gilbert Pilgram, executive chef-owner of Zuni Café “What Camille is doing in Paris is amazing. Her book shows us that keeping it simple, trying new wines, and making food that’s direct is all we need for a great experience. She is an inspiration.”—Andrew Tarlow, owner of The Marlow Collective “Camille has said she does not consider herself a chef, but she is my favorite chef in the world. I’m excited for the essence of La Buvette to be shared with the world!”—Danny Bowien, chef and co-founder of Mission Chinese Food “La Buvette is a glimpse into the intimate universe of Camille Fourmont—part sommelier, part curator, part chef, part artist, and master of the complex art of hospitality.”—Chad Robertson, baker/owner of Tartine and author of Tartine Bread
