Culinary Innovator and Entrepreneur, Chef Guy Vaknin
Guy Vaknin is a renowned chef famous for his innovative plant-based creations. Raised in a big family in Israel, food was always the focus of their weekly gatherings. He spent a significant amount of time in his grandmother’s Moroccan kitchen making food using the freshest vegetables, herbs, and spices.
After finishing his military duties in the Israeli Defense Force, he moved to the United States and started school as a computer engineer major and quickly realized that it wasn’t the right choice for him.
Instead, he enrolled in the Institute of Culinary Education in 2007. After that, became the Executive Chef at Esprit Events, an established kosher catering company in Manhattan. In this role, he met his future wife and co-founder Tali.
Together, they developed their signature vegan sushi and the Beyond Sushi brand was born.
In 2012, Chef Guy was a contestant on Fox’s Hell’s Kitchen Season 10. In 2018, Chef Guy appeared on ABC’s Shark Tank Season 10 and won a deal with investors Lori Greiner and Matt Higgins.
Chef Guy’s vision of creating polychromatic plant-based sushi has evolved into a sustainable brand that offers an extensive menu with global flavors.
