Gavin Newsom of California was widely criticized Thursday for eating at The French Laundry when Atelier Crenn offers a clearly superior take on contemporary cuisine," the Onion wrote, referencing chef Dominique Crenn's popular, three-Michelin-starred restaurant.READ ALSO:Bay Area resident "Ian Samuels" told the Onion that Thomas Keller's storied restaurant "peaked 15 years ago" while calling Atelier Crenn a "strikingly inventive restaurant."“How can we trust this man to lead us when his taste in restaurants is so pedestrian?"
