Boulud Opening At Mandarin In London

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London will introduce the award-winning cuisine of Lyon-born chef Daniel Boulud to the UK when Bar Boulud opens in the hotel in Spring 2010. Designed as a French inspired bistro and wine bar, Bar Boulud, London will follow the successful format of Bar Boulud in New York which has achieved significant acclaim.

Daniel Boulud’s culinary roots can be traced back to his family farm near Lyon, France where he developed a love of home cooking using fresh seasonal produce. While it is in New York City that Boulud has mastered the culinary scene, he was first trained in France by legendary chefs Roger Vergé, Georges Blanc and Michel Guérard. He moved to the US in 1982 where he first rose to fame as Executive Chef at the legendary Le Cirque. Boulud opened his own restaurant, Daniel, in New York in 1993, followed by Café Boulud, Bar Boulud, DB Bistro Moderne and, most recently, DBGB Kitchen and Bar, on the Bowery.
