About The Serie

(THE HEADER IS A PHOTO BY THE EXCELLENT PHOTOGRAPHER **PER-ANDERS JORGENSEN FOR AN RECIPE (VEAL LEGS, BLOOD PUDDING, BONE-MARROW POWDER AND BUTCHER’S GLOVE) OF OLA RUDIN AND SEBASTIAN PERSSON, FORMER TRIO RESTAURANT/MALMÖ.)

This Series of Q & A (with recipes) is realized to raise awareness of these young emerging and creative chefs from around the world. Through their culinary passion and expertise, they bring the world of ‘’Gastronomy’’ to another level. This Series is the first theme for the future Cahier Food & Gastronomy.

The choice of chefs is based on many personal criteria, these are ”coup de coeur”. They are chosen after extensive readings (books, newspapers, magazines) and reviewing as well as their reputation (local). It is certain that many are forgotten, but those chosen are leaders and creators of exceptions. I could have chosen 20, 30, 50 or 100 chefs, but instead, I decided to pick (in first) 35 chefs from around the globe (and I will continue, one chef by month). The position is not important, #50 can be #10!

I have, throughout the interviews noticed some significant trends, influences and a very creative and dynamic cuisine. You’ll discover the chefs of Australia, Belgium, England, France, Hong Kong, Italy, Singapore and several from the Scandinavian countries.

The chefs are grouped by country. Most of the interviews were done (and written) in English, a few were done in French and one was translated from Spanish to English.

I sincerely hope that you have as much pleasure reading them as I had writing them for you. Enjoy the Series…
