Member FDIC. THE FUTURE OF FOOD CHEF SALLY CAMACHO MUELLER TESSE RESTAURANT During her childhood, at around the age of five, Camacho developed the passion for not only consuming but also creating exquisite food with unique flavors. This was the beginning of a life journey where she turned her love into a career. Her food creations have gained a strong reputation of uniqueness and originality. While her mentors have taught her traditional French flavors and techniques, she chooses to reconstruct and reinterpret them with Southeast Asian influences. She strongly believes in the persistence of memories created by flavors. Many of her creations exude this ethic, containing tasteful experiences that are one of a kind. After graduating from the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco, Camacho gained insight into the luxury culinary world at Caneel Bay Resort, a Rosewood Hotel property, in the US Virgin Islands. She gained a deeper understanding of plated desserts, chocolate, and sugar work while working with the world-renowned Donald Wressell, executive pastry chef at The Four Seasons Beverly Hills, where she catered high- profile events such as the Grammy’s and the Academy Awards. Chef Camacho is the Managing Partner and Executive Pastry Chef at Tesse Restaurant in West Hollywood. Tesse Restaurant is a fusion of all the various techniques, flavors, and creations she has been able to absorb throughout her long and illustrious career.
