Emma Bengtsson
Emma Bengtsson, known as an innovative and reputable mentor chef, has vibrantly taken hold of New York diners with elegant Nordic dishes that push the boundaries of simple flavors and favorite dishes of the region. Under her tutelage, the restaurant Aquavit in NYC was awarded two Michelin stars within the same year of her promotion to Executive Chef. This award made her the first Swedish woman to continuously hold two Michelin stars and only the second in the United States after Dominique Crenn. Chef Bengtsson was also granted the Mentor Chef Award by Michelin in 2003.
