Chef Boulay's journey began at the renowned Fauchon Paris, where he trained under some of the world's most celebrated pastry chefs. His career has since flourished with key roles at prestigious establishments, including Pierre Gagnaire's Sketch in London, Le Meurice in Paris, Ritz-Carlton Tokyo, and Conrad Osaka. Most recently, he served as Executive Pastry Chef at Four Seasons Hotel Seoul, where he led a diverse range of pastry operations.
Chef Boulay has collaborated with culinary icons such as Alain Ducasse, Cedric Grolet, Yannick Alleno, and Yorick Tieche. His extensive international experience and exceptional skills position him to elevate The Peninsula Bangkok's pastry offerings to new heights.
In celebration of Chef Boulay's arrival, The Peninsula Bangkok is pleased to unveil an exclusive new Afternoon Tea set, debuting on 1 October 2024. This refined experience showcases Chef Boulay's modern approach to pastry, blending visual sophistication with exceptional flavour.
Chef Boulay's Afternoon Tea features elements such as Thai basil and rose essence, adding a distinctive twist to traditional desserts. His use of diverse ingredients—including fruits, chocolates, and nuts—ensures a rich tapestry of flavours. A key aspect of his philosophy is achieving the perfect balance of sweetness, ensuring each dessert is delightful without being overly sweet. The range of textures, from soft and crispy to spongy and creamy, further enhances the overall taste experience, making each dessert exceptionally enjoyable.
Signature items include the Hazelnut Cubic Mille-Feuille and Raspberry Pavlova, which exemplify Chef Boulay's modern reinterpretation of classic favourites.
Priced at THB 1,288++ for one person, THB 2,188++ for two, and THB 2,988++ for two with two glasses of Champagne, the set includes tea or coffee, ensuring a perfect blend of flavours to complement the breathtaking view of the Chao Phraya River from The Lobby. All prices are in Thai Baht and subject to a 10% service charge and applicable government tax.
Guests are invited to indulge in this exquisite Afternoon Tea set, available from 1 October 2024 at The Lobby, from 14:00 - 18:00 hrs.
