Bjorn Frantzen, Sweden
Oddly enough, Frantzen was a professional football player before he started to pursue a career in the culinary arts. Before he played football professionally, Frantzen attended culinary school and cooked in the military. When his sports career was over, Frantzen went back to cooking. It wasn't long before he opened his own restaurant. In one year, his restaurant earned a Michelin star, and after the next year, he won his second.
