Mikkel Karstad

Mikkel is a highly acclaimed and influential Copenhagen based Executive Chef, cookbook author, food writer, stylist and food authority who helped define the New Nordic Cuisine movement, in the early 2000’s.
He is former gastronomic advisor and long time friend of Claus Meyer, the co-founder of iconic Danish restaurant Noma and has worked in London for Pierre Koffmann and Gordon Ramsay. Despite having a hugely successful 20+ year career, and is one of the leading chefs in Denmark, Mikkel maintains a quietly humble persona.
