MEET OUR TEAM

Saeko Nemoto
EXECUTIVE PASTRY CHEF
Saeko Nemoto
EXECUTIVE PASTRY CHEF

Saeko Nemoto has more than a decade of experience in the professional pastry world, holding  notable positions at established hotels and restaurants in Japan, Canada, Australia and New York. Additionally, she has worked and traveled through the Mediterranean regions of Provence, France and Istanbul, Turkey, which led to the inspiration of her dessert menus at Boulud Sud Miami.

Saeko draws on her foundation in traditional French patisserie to explore new variations on classic recipes by incorporating Mediterranean flavors and regional ingredients. Her desserts exemplify the shared cultures of this coastal part of the world, not unlike those here in Miami, by blending techniques and exotic ingredients. Beautifully presented with a  balance of flavor, Saeko’s desserts are influenced by the vibrant fruits, spices, chocolates and textures found across the Mediterranean. Changing seasonally, her offerings could include Grapefruit Givre with sesame foam, Turkish cotton candy and grapefruit sorbet or Coffee & Chocolate Cube with black cardamom cremeux, praline feuilletine and baklava ice cream. She also offers a rotating selection of house-made ice creams, or crèmes glacees, such as Fior di Late, pistachio and burnt orange.

In Provence, she worked at Patisserie Rorant del Mont-Meilleur Oucrier making Provence-style desserts such as Cassata, which is featured on Boulud Sud’s dessert menu, as well as fresh citrus and fruit sorbets. At Chocolate Butterfly in Istanbul, she melded local ingredients with French techniques, such as Chocolate Bonbons filled with Raki Ganache, Raki being a local anise-flavored liqueur.

General Manager

Growing up in Paris, Grégory Delaunay spent his childhood exploring restaurants and hotels in the nearby hilly peninsula known as Bretagne with his grandparents. He became infatuated with the atmosphere, energy, and camaraderie in professional kitchens, and always insisted in meeting the chef and cooks. This passion for hospitality led the young boy who was once filled with curiosity to one day becoming a server in Paris, and later, a receptionist in London. Grégory’s work experience further clarified that he would want to a serious career in hospitality, choosing to attend the Centre International de Glion in Switzerland for a Masters in Hospitality Business with a specialization in Food & Beverage Management. Upon graduation, Grégory moved back to France and accepted a Food & Beverage Manager position at Le Diamant, traveling to multiple continents and managing over 100 employees. In 2007, he made his big move to Miami, Florida where he continued to build his resumé and experience at French and Spanish restaurants across the area, including La Goulue, Palmeira Beach Club Hotel & Spa, and Xixon Spanish Restaurant.

In June 2021, Grégory joined Dinex Group as the General Manager of Boulud Sud Miami, Chef Daniel Boulud’s Mediterranean restaurant highlighting the regional flavors of France, Spain, Italy, Greece, and Turkey. While he looks forward to the opportunity to guide the service team, Grégory remains open to learning the Boulud ways, as there is always room for improvement, and adapting to new trends is a must. On the daily, he reminds his team, “teamwork and passion are the key to success.” As General Manager, Grégory’s goal is to continue building a happy and triumphant team at Boulud Sud, while offering each guest an unforgettable experience.
