Chef Jens Hansen

He has been described as “zany,” “wild” and “enchanting.” His food has been called “innovative” and the “best kept secret in Anchorage.” Jens (pronounced “yens”) Hansen has been cooking professionally for 50 years now, and more than 40 of them have been spent here in Alaska.

Chef Luke Doherty

Luke Doherty has a dozen ducks, an idea and the afternoon. Part of the fun of being chef de cuisine at Sacks Café & Restaurant in Anchorage is walking into work with a seed of a plan – wine-braised duck served with a creamy, corn-enriched polenta – and working out the details in the kitchen.

Chef Lawrence Roberts of Club Paris

Chef Lawrence Roberts is the man responsible for those delicious filet mignon burgers and steak sandwiches that downtown Anchorage has been enjoying at lunch for years.
