Chef Martin Bergstrand

Chef Martin Bergstrand’s culinary journey began in 1992 in Småland, Southern Sweden, igniting his passion at just 16 years old. He then took to Stockholm, where he co-founded the renowned restaurant, “Farang.” After an inspiring 8-month pilgrimage in India and Indonesia helping to launch a restaurant, Chef Martin returned to Stockholm and discovered his love for desserts, prompting rigorous pastry training over 18 months. In 2018, he ventured to London, honing his craft at Michelin-starred establishments, before the COVID-19 lockdown which led him back to Stockholm for a pit stop at restaurant Frantzén. Now, as Executive Sous Chef at the Michelin-starred Nordic fine-dining restaurant Villa Frantzén, the brainchild of former footballer and world-renowned Michelin-starred chef Björn Frantzén, Chef Martin continues to craft culinary excellence, blending his global adventures with a passion for creating unforgettable dining experiences.
