Daniel Boulud has been appointed as Chef de Cuisine at Boulud at Four Seasons Hotel Toronto

Straight from his brigade in New York City, Daniel Boulud has named Tyler Shedden as Chef de Cuisine of the much anticipated Café Boulud Toronto. A native to Canada’s west coast, Tyler began cooking in his grandmother’s kitchen before deciding he was destined for a career as a professional chef. He took his first steps in that direction in 1996 when he went to work as commis - or assistant cook - at Val d’Isere in Whistler. From C restaurant in British Columbia to Anthony’s in England, and with a final stint at Raincity Grill in Vancouver, Tyler moved to New York in 2006 to work with Gordon Ramsay as sous chef at the London NYC. In 2008 he was promoted to executive sous chef of the two Michelin star restaurant. Reaching that third Michelin star proved less difficult as Tyler moved on to become Private Dining Room Chef in May 2011, at DANIEL, Daniel Boulud’s fine dining establishment in New York City.
