Four Seasons Boston Hires Brooke Vosika to Head Food and Beverage
Fresh from Opening L'Atelier de Jo"el Robuchon in Four Seasons Hotel New York, Brooke Vosika to Brin
BOSTON, MA, October 19, 2006. Brooke Vosika joins Four Seasons Hotel Boston as Executive Chef, following the successful opening of L'Atelier de Jo"el Robuchon at Four Seasons Hotel New York and 24 years of leadership in the company. Vosika's new role in Boston places him in charge of the highest volume Four Seasons food and beverage operation in the United States. He will oversee The Bristol Lounge, room service, banquets and Aujourd'hui, acting as mentor to chef de cuisine William Kovel.
A native of Philadelphia, Vosika has strong ties to Boston through a friendship forged with Boston chef Jamie Mammano when they cooked on the line together at Four Seasons Hotel Washington D.C. in 1982.
In the past 19 years, Vosika worked in four AAA Five Diamond/Mobil Five-Star properties including Four Seasons Hotel New York from 2001 to 2006; Four Seasons Hotel Atlanta from 1997 to 2001; and Four Seasons Olympic Hotel in Seattle from 1990 to 1997. He is the recipient of numerous culinary awards including second place at the prestigious Bocuse d'Or.
Although executive chef responsibilities rarely leave time to relax, Vosika escapes to his cabin in the Berkshires, a home built by his grandfather who was a founding member of the Woodstock area art community. At his cabin, Vosika tends to an extensive garden, peach, apple and fig trees as well as a wine cellar that houses vintage bottles from as far back as 1847.
"The Boston dining scene is thriving and I can't wait to get involved, get creative and bring an edge to the cuisine at this hotel for events and in the restaurants," Brooke Vosika, executive chef, said.
