Chef Daniel Boulud & Chef Wesley Holton
Daniel Boulud is Chef-Owner of ten award-winning restaurants and the Feast & Fêtes catering company. While he hails from Lyon, France, it is in New York that he has truly mastered the culinary scene, so much so that Daniel Boulud is today considered one of America’s leading culinary authorities. Over the last two decades, Boulud has evolved from a chef to a chef-restaurateur, bringing his artistry to his New York City restaurants DANIEL, Café Boulud, DB Bistro Moderne, Bar Boulud and now, DBGB Kitchen and Bar. In addition, he has created Café Boulud in Palm Beach and Daniel Boulud Brasserie at the Wynn Las Vegas Resort. In May 2008, the Chef extended his culinary reach internationally, opening Maison Boulud in the Legation Quarter in Beijing, China.
Wesley Holton joined Wynn Las Vegas as the Executive Chef of Daniel Boulud Brasserie in the summer of 2007. Holton has been mentored by Boulud for over five years and shares his vision for pairing traditional French brasserie fare with simple American influences. Holton’s passion for cooking began at an early age in his family’s kitchen, and his interest grew more complex. In 1997, his mother surprised him by enrolling him in the Schoolcraft College in Michigan to pursue a professional culinary degree. A strong drive to improve upon his craft took him to New York City in search of culinary excellence. Pairing up with Boulud has had an exceptional influence on his culinary style and work ethic that will continue to lead him to great success.
