"Dinner in Brasserie" by Chef Camille, released on April 8, 2025 under the Jazzpulse Project label, is a delightful 38-minute journey through the world of fine dining and French cuisine. This album, a collaboration with Dennis Robinson, is a sonic feast that mirrors the culinary artistry of Chef Camille, known for her innovative and rustic-yet-precise dishes that evoke the charm of a hip Parisian backstreet.
The ten-track album, including standout pieces like "Clinking Glasses" and "Pause Before Dessert," captures the essence of a evening spent in a cozy French brasserie. Each song is a dish, carefully crafted and presented, inviting you to savor the moment. From the initial "Clinking Glasses" to the final "Lingering Aroma," the album is a testament to Chef Camille's expertise and her ability to create memorable dining experiences.
Inspired by regional French cuisine and British seafood, the album reflects the unexpected and strange fragrances, vegetables, and herbs that make up Chef Camille's signature tasting menu. It's a celebration of creativity and originality, much like the blackboard menu at her compact French bistro on Borough Market's Stoney Street.
"Dinner in Brasserie" is not just an album; it's an experience that engages all your senses, much like a meal at Chef Camille's restaurant. It's a symphony of flavors and aromas, a testament to the art of fine dining, and a delightful addition to any music lover's collection.
