Daniel Boulud, one of Haute Living’s most blogged about men, is hitting the web again today with the confirmation of rumors surrounding his potential restaurant project in London, England.

Boulud has confirmed that the new restaurant project is no longer a speculation but rather a fact and he will be opening another Bar Boulud in London’s luxurious Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park hotel.

The London-based Bar Boulud will play on the same concept as the New York City original. Designed by Adam Tihany, the restaurant will seat 165 guests and according to Boulud’s press release, “will have New York’s energy and spirit, a little French soul and tradition, and a touch of London.” Sounds like heaven to me!

No official word on when London can expect to enjoy a taste of Boulud as of yet. This latest news coming from the very busy Boulud camp is right off the heels of a month full of Boulud ups and down with the opening of a Singapore location of Daniel Boulud Moderne Bistro and the closing of his beloved Vegas brasserie.
