The festivities will consist of two public events, beginning with the introduction of a tantalizing Daily Feature Menu Series from October 4th – 9th. Created especially by Executive Chef Alex Chen, Executive Chef Roger Ma, or Executive Pastry Chef Kenta Takahashi, this delectable menu highlight will see one new unique dish added daily to the existing menu for the week. As an ending to the week-long celebrations, the restaurant will be hosting an Alumni Dinner on the 10th, with a limited number of guests having the opportunity to enjoy a multi-course menu with both past & present members of the Boulevard team.

Executive Chef Alex Chen is excited to have the opportunity to welcome back and collaborate with familiar faces. For the highly decorated Executive Chef, uplifting those around him is a priority, along with mentorship and relationship building. The Alumni Dinner is a way to bring everyone all together once again, learn, try new things, and share knowledge. “We are full of ideas and cannot wait to bring them to fruition, with this being the grand finale of several immersive culinary experiences planned in celebration of our 10th anniversary,” he shares. “I’m looking forward to presenting our guests with an evening of culinary delights, with each of our chefs creating a dish that represents a part of their journey.”

I feel we try and interpret Vancouver into every dish we create at Boulevard,” explains Executive Chef Roger Ma. “With this being such a milestone year, we are truly delighted to welcome back those who helped us reach this pinnacle. All of our chefs, past and present, have played a part in Boulevard’s success – we wouldn’t be able to do what we do without them.
