What others are saying about Café Boulud



Most dishes at Café Boulud, chef Daniel Boulud's restaurant at the Brazilian Court hotel, are also offered at his New York flagship, but the setting is pure Palm Beach (with a touch of the south of France). The dining room is lovely and intimate, and the outdoor courtyard has a bubbling fountain. Connoisseurs appreciate Boulud's innovative mix of traditional and interpretive fine French fare.

It is hardly surprising that culinary marvel Daniel Boulud would choose one of the island's historical landmarks as the home for yet another of his enterprises--and the four star chef has done it again.

Highly-trained personnel include Chef de Cuisine Zach Bell who prepares classic cooking with a knack for pairing ingredients to create textural dishes that are visually appealing.

In terms of ambiance, restaurant designer Leslie Schlesinger's inimitable eye for color and detail has created the perfect setting for a sublime dining experience. With just a glance at the menu, we knew we were about to indulge in haute cuisine of the first order.

Café Boulud, a 120-seat restaurant, is anything but cafelike--a hushed, subdued room swathed in terra cotta, burgundy and golds.

In characteristic Boulud style, the food is both countrified and straighforward and sophisticated at the same time; Chef Zach Bell's creations are relatively spare, never showy, and not crowded with nonessential ingredients.
