ⓘ About Marcus Samuelsson

Marcus Samuelsson is an acclaimed Ethiopian American chef that made history as the youngest chef to receive a 3 star award from The New York Times. But the lofty heights of owning restaurants with revenues in the million is not something that came easy. Samuelsson was born in a hut no bigger than two restaurant tables in rural Ethiopia. He survived a serious bout of TB that killed his mother only to soon after be separated from his father. Not long after the incident, Samuelsson and his sister moved to Sweden after being adopted by Lennart Samuelsson and Ann Marie, a Swedish couple. They would then grow up in Gothenburg where Marcus spent a lot of time with Helga, his adoptive grandmother, where he developed a love for cooking.
