Meeting Daniel Boulud

a world class international celebrity chef

Hoteliers are encouraged to understand and appreciate food. It's not everyday that one gets to meet a master creator of fine food such as Chef Daniel Boulud, who is the driving force behind db Bistro Moderne and Lumiere restaurant in Vancouver.



Daniel Boulud is certainly of of the most important figures in the Who's Who of Food and Beverage in the world.

“Not long after opening, restaurant Daniel was rated one of the top ten restaurants in the world by the International Herald Tribune. He was named Chef of the Year by Bon Appétit, and Daniel received Gourmet’s Top Table Award, a four-star rating from the New York Times, Wine Spectator’s Grand Award, and New York City’s top ratings for cuisine, service and decor in the Zagat Survey.

Boulud received the James Beard Award for Best Chef of New York City in 1992 while Executive Chef at Le Cirque. The James Beard Foundation would again recognize Chef Daniel Boulud with “Outstanding Chef of the Year” in 1994 and “Outstanding Restaurateur” in 2006 for restaurant Daniel. In April 2007 he received the Culinary Humanitarian Award at the United Nations from the Adopt-a-Mine Field Foundation. The President of France made Boulud a Chevalier de la Légion d’honneur in March 2006 in recognition for his contribution to the advancement of French culture.”

We have ordered a set of the 4 books for those interested in learning more about his philosophy.

And yes, that's Natasha and Roman in the middle picture, they met with Luke who is currently gaining work experience there until May when he leaves Vancouver.
