The Team

Daniel Boulud
Chef and RestaurateurRaised on his family’s farm in the village of Saint-Pierre-de-Chandieu, Chef Daniel Boulud infuses his many culinary endeavors with the traditional flavours of the French countryside. He is chef-owner of several award-winning restaurants as well as the Feast & Fêtes catering company. Never boring, Chef Daniel’s menus feature seasonal highlights, locally sourced ingredients and one-of-a-kind style.

Colin Henderson
Chef de CuisineChef Colin’s interest for the culinary arts began at a young age and at fifteen years old he began working as a fry cook in a small local restaurant. This experience led into the enrollment and successful completion of Culinary Management School at Ottawa’s Algonquin College. Prior to assuming his position at Café Boulud, Chef Colin joined Ottawa’s Beckta Group as sous chef and later aided in the opening of Toronto restaurant Lena also in the position of sous chef. Colin had the unique opportunity to work closely with Chef Michael Tusk in his San Francisco three Michelin star restaurant Quince, learning the finer points of fresh pasta and perfecting the sophistication of food plating finesse.
