Alice Waters Talks About Her Netflix Chef’s Table Documentary & Her Ongoing School Lunch Crusade

In this special episode, we’re joined by the legendary Alice Waters—chef, activist, founder of Chez Panisse, and the visionary behind the Edible Schoolyard Project. Alice is one of four culinary icons featured in the upcoming “Chef’s Table: Legends” documentary on Netflix, dropping on April 28th to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the series.

Alice joins host Kerry Diamond from her home in Berkeley and shares her passionate advocacy for free, healthy school lunches for all children—and why she believes this is the key to transforming our food system. We also dive into her Netflix episode, reconciliation with fellow food pioneer Jeremiah Tower after three decades of silence, and her new life as a grandmother.
