Fredrik Berselius

Join us for a special guest demonstration with the acclaimed Chef Fredrik Berselius. In 2012, he opened Aska, where he was recognised for bridging the culinary heritage of his upbringing with the immediate environs of his Brooklyn address.

Within less than a year, Chef Frederik earned his first Michelin star, and Aska was named one of the 10 Best New Restaurants in America by Bon Appetit magazine. In 2014, Chef Frederik decided to temporarily close the restaurant in order to move to a new and bigger location.

Aska reopened in the summer of 2016 and within only a few months, was awarded two Michelin stars, being the only restaurant to receive the honour in the 2017 New York Guide and one of only ten restaurants in the city to hold two stars. Chef Frederik’s first cookbook, Aska, will be released with Phaidon in the spring of 2018.
