FRIDA RONGE

As culinary leader at TAK, award-winning food creator Frida Ronge has focused on modern Scandinavian food culture with a touch of Japan. The sense of quality and interest in food comes from her upbringing on the west coast of Sweden, where her father runs a fish market. Another thing that has followed Frida throughout her career is the art of Japanese cooking, but she has always wanted to create her own version of it – dynamic, creative and contemporary. Fish, seafood, vegetables and meat comes utmost from Sweden and the Nordic countries – carefully selected by season. For the Japanese ingredients, Frida and her staff work exclusively with the best suppliers.
