"Sarah Stegner is a Chicago-area native, a co-founder of the Green City Market, and one of the best examples of the values and ethos that make the city great. Before she opened her suburban Northbrook restaurant in 2004, she spent 20 years at the Ritz-Carlton and won a pair of Beard Awards for Rising Star Chef in 1994 and Best Chef: Midwest in 1998." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
