Jens S.

My name is Jens, half Swedish, half Danish, and wholeheartedly a chef with nearly 30 years of experience as a cook, where I have worked as a head chef in everything from Michelin restaurants to Meyers canteens. However, it has never been stars that have driven me, but the love for flavor cut to the bone and the simplicity of good ingredients. Being able to pass that on, served on a plate to happy guests, is an experience every time.
Grounded gastronomy with elegance is the motto I work by!

Privately, my wife and our two children have a small country house in the picturesque Tuse Næs with 1 hectare of land, a view of Lammefjorden, spray-free kitchen garden, and organic chickens. Together, we run La Finca Catering, Private dining & Food workshop.

Sustainability, animal welfare, and the philosophy of farm to table are part of my cooking, just as I love to incorporate our own ingredients but also other high-quality local products into the meals for you and your guests.

Take a look at my menus, which are mostly for inspiration. The experience from many private dining events and larger and smaller parties tells me that we create the perfect menu in dialogue.
